Roman glass beaker
Two joining rim and side fragments of a beaker of colourless glass. Rim flared slightly and ground smooth, horizontal hollow-ground ridge beneath, and another further down side. Beneath this is a plain ground band, then a zone of facet cut decoration: part of six interlocking rows of diamond shaped facets survive, arranged in quincunx, the top now being rounded on their uppermost sides, with smaller, similarly rounded facets between them.
