Created by Roman artisans in the 1st century AD, this ceramic masterpiece is now housed in the prestigious Ashmolean Museum at the University of Oxford, UK. Measuring at just 10.9 cm in diameter, this cup exudes elegance and sophistication with its plain design and shallow foot. The presence of two handles adds to its functionality while also enhancing its aesthetic appeal. Its impeccable craftsmanship speaks volumes about the skill and artistry of Roman potters during that era.
