Core formed, handled, cosmetic vase of glass

Core formed, handled, cosmetic vase of glass
The technique and decorative motif on this Rhodian type of miniature handled vessel are similar to Egyptian and Cypriot products a thousand years earlier. In the Late Period, Egypt had strong links with Rhodes, where the main temple dedicated to Hera included an unusually large number of Egyptian votive offerings.
