Description: | Roman? glass vessel rim and handle. The rim fragment measures 34mm long, 11mm wide and 3.5mm thick. The attached handle is 26mm long, 21mm wide and 8mm thick at its thickest. The object weighs 5.51grams.The rim consists of a sheet of glass that has been folded over on itself, so that the folded section forms a border around the outside of the object. Attached to this is a D-shaped and oval cross sectioned handle. It is at its thickest where it joins the vessel and it has been pulled outwards and shaped to form a 'frilled' border made up of five circular depressions, which create projections, spaced along its rounded edge. The object may be a fragment of bowl or similar and could be Roman in date.
