Bath Scraper
Not on view
Flat objects such as this one, molded on one side, were used in the public bath (hammam). The opposite side, which is coarse due to the siliceous fragments in the clay, would be used to rub the skin. The number of bath scrapers which have survived display a wide variety of decorative motifs.
