Roman samian bowl, decorated
(With probable sherds in 234 and 278). The lower zone includes a straight wreath of plants below the carination, over a dog (a tiny version of 01965). The piece from 278 shows the same wreath and that from 234 has two festoons, one with a dog and a trifid pendant. A bowl from a mould by a potter who used beaded rather than wavy-line borders (cf. 57/180 and 311). The pendant motif is on a bowl from London (formerly Guildhall Museum) stamped by Severus ii, which has also headed borders.
