Glass mosaic fragment
Thin-walled body fragment.
Translucent deep purple, turquoise blue green, opaque white and yellow.
Shallow convex curving side.
Composite mosaic pattern formed from polygonal sections of two canes: one in a purple ground with a white circle, and central white rod surrounded by a narrow blue ground within a yellow circle, and the other in a blue ground with a yellow spiral.
Polished exterior; pitting of surface bubbles on exterior; pitting and iridescent creamy weathering on interior and jagged edges.
Probably from the same vessel as 91.1.1888.
