BOUTEILLE Verre H. 20,5 cm Méditerranée orientale, IIe-IVe siècle Provenance Collection européenne, acquis sur le marché de l'art anglais dans les années 1990 Importante bouteille en verre soufflé composée d'une large panse sphérique surmontée d'un col cylindrique évasé. La panse, de forme globulaire aplatie, présente un profil harmonieux reposant sur un fond légèrement concave. Le col, de section cylindrique, s'élargit progressivement vers l'embouchure, créant une lèvre évasée fonctionnelle. Le verre, d'origine probablement bleu-vert clair, est aujourd'hui entièrement recouvert d'une spectaculaire iridescence aux tons dorés, argentés et bruns-orangés, ainsi que de concrétions minérales blanchâtres témoignant d'un long enfouissement.
