This bowl represents one of the two variants of the glassware used under the early Principate. In particular it represents a variant with bright translucent colour. The same shape can be seen on the pottery and in the metal works of the period, and examples like such have been found not only in Italy (Pompeii) but also in the military camps of Noricum, Germania and Britannia.
