Two fragments of roman murrina vasa.

1st century B.C. - 2nd century A.D.

22 x 28 mm 18 x 22 mm

The two fragments of cupped vase come from two different artefacts carved in two different beautiful sardonyx varieties. A fragment has a smooth mirror-polished surface, convex and of fairly uniform thickness, with the presence of typical nodules. The other piece has a cameo carved surface, of uneven thickness and probably decorated with figures. Two precious examples of disappeared artifacts, already from the time of the Romans considered particularly precious and of great luxury. Rare.
