Dimensions: H. 2 1/2 in. (6.4 cm)W. 1 7/8 in. (4.8 cm). Date: probably 10th-12th century.This charming object was designed to hold kohl, a black cosmetic powder applied around the eyes. In the past, kohl was widely used by men and children as well as women. It was thought not only to accentuate the beauty of the eyes, but also to guard against the glaring sun, ward off evil, and discourage eye disease. The narrow drill hole at the top of this flask would have accommodated a slender stick to collect the cosmetic.

Roman In Hellenistic and Roman times, vessels made in semiprecious stone were much sought after as symbols of wealth and sophistication. They were used as diplomatic gifts or treasured as heirlooms, and many of them found their way into royal tombs or imperial collections, both in antiquity and later. Their rarity also encouraged imitations in both glass and pottery..

NG 1980-27H3202c. Netherlands porcelain   SecondAmulet with a Lamashtu demon ca. early 1st millennium B.C. This plaque is made of obsidian, a naturally-occurring glass produced by volcanic activity, and finely carved in intaglio, in which a design is carved into a flat surface, creating a negative image. The top edge of the rectangular plaque is damaged, but enough remains to indicate that it originally had a projecting element at top center, probably drilled horizontally in order to allow the amulet to be strung and worn on the body or otherwise suspended. The image and text both relate to Lamashtu, daughter of the sky god Anu. This powerful demon was cast out of the heavens, in some accounts because she requested to dine on the flesh of human babies. Restless and angry, she roamed the earth violently attacking vulnerable creatures, especially pregnant mothers and newborns. Lamashtu is shown with a tall, sinewy human body, with stringy muscles emphasized by the parallel striations in the carving. Her head is that of a lion-griffin,Box with lid, anonymous, 1800 - 1900 Lacquer box with a representation of three geese in gold lacquer and the moon in metal on the lid.

Kitchen utensils Copyright: xZoonar.com/TetianaxChernykovax 21728383Cylinder seal and modern impression: oblique lines ca. 2600-2500 B.C. Although engraved stones had been used as early as the seventh millennium B.C. to stamp impressions in clay, the invention in the fourth millennium B.C. of carved cylinders that could be rolled over clay allowed the development of more complex seal designs. These cylinder seals, first used in Mesopotamia, served as a mark of ownership or identification. Seals were either impressed on lumps of clay that were used to close jars, doors, and baskets, or they were rolled onto clay tablets that recorded information about commercial or legal transactions. The seals were often made of precious stones. Protective properties may have been ascribed to both the material itself and the carved designs. Seals are important to the study of ancient Near Eastern art because many examples survive from every period and can, therefore, help to define chronological phases. Often preserving imagery no longer extant in any other medium, theInlay fragment, rows of zigzag lines. Dimensions: H. 0.9 × W. 2.2 cm (3/8 × 7/8 in.). Date: 200 BC-100 AD.A mosaic glass technique allowed multiples of an image to be created: a figural or design composition was made by bundling colored glass canes, which were then drawn out into a long bar. The bar was then sectioned at right angles, probably by striking the bar with appropriate tools, to produce small inlay tiles. The tile would then be smoothed and polished on the face intended to appear outwards.

Author: ANTONI GAUDI.Fragment of a Plaque 100 BCE-100 CE Italy. In ancient Rome, there was a high demand for colorful glass that could dazzle banquet guests alongside the expensive silver and gold serving wares meant to impress. Fragments like this one would have once been a part of larger mosaic dishes. The mosaic pattern was made by sagging molten glass into bowl-shaped molds, a technique used on many of these fragments is similar to millefiori, ìthousand flowersî in Italian, a modern glass-making method in which tiny rods of colored glass are bundled together, wrapped in a sheet of glass, fused, and then thinly sliced to reveal swirls of a flower-like patterns. They were arranged side by side, sometimes together with bits of colored glass, and fused together with heat.. Glass, mosaic glass technique .

(6.03 × 27.15 × 27.31 cm), Lacquer, Japan, 18th century, Originally from a set of ten, the five trays on display here show a variety of plant motifs associated with the seasons, and executed in hiramaki-e (low sprinkled picture) with gold and pigmented powders. The bottom of one of the trays bears the seal 'Shunshō,' for the family of lacquer artisans. The Shunshō school was established by Yamamoto Shunshō (1610-1682) and continued on until the end of the 19th century. Shunshō I was well known for his mastery of the togidashi-e (polished out picture) technique, which is used on these pieces. However, the naturalism of the plant designs indicates that this is a later piece by either Shunshō V (Jirobei, b. 1734) or VI (Masanori, d. 1803).Wreaths, 11 Greek, Laconian.
