Description: | This goblet is formed of a stem upon which sits a circular bowl. Four semicircular ridges (lugs) have been formed on one side running the length of the bowl. Each ridge has been pierced with a hole towards the top which runs horizontally from side to side. Made of cream coloured marble the surface is patinated giving a glittering, glossy effect when it catches the light. Darker areas can be found which appear as natural deposits inside the material. A brown pigment can be found inside the incised holes and in areas inside the bowl. The rim of the bowl is badly chipped and a few chips can be found on the base.
