   Description
Displaying aesthetic refinement and technical finesse second to none, Roman cage cups are glass vessels decorated with delicate openwork, sometimes including an inscribed toast (Drink! For many years). This book identifies the dates and locations of cage cups production, describes their characteristic shapes and colours and addresses different theories about the manufacturing processes that were used by ancient glassworkers. A catalogue presents more than 80 examples, each with commentary and bibliography.
