Roman Glass Sprinkler Flask in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, February 2013
Medium; Technique: Glass; blown and trailed
Culture: Roman, Syrian
Period: Mid-Imperial
Date: 3rd century A.D.
Dimensions: H. 4 3/16 in. (10.7 cm)
Classification: Glass
Credit Line: Fletcher Fund, 1959
Accession Number: 59.11.11
Description:
Although the snake-thread decoration seen here is found on Roman glassware throughout the Empire, the shape of this flask belongs firmly in the eastern tradition. It has a constriction at the base of the neck that allowed the contents to be poured out only in drops and so has become known as a sprinkler flask.
