This unbelievable piece of magnificent craftsmanship makes me rethink the lifestyle of the ancient Roman era.

It's mind-boggling to think that a Roman glass work from 300 AD can survive intact. This one is at the Rheinisches Landesmuseum Trier, an archaeological museum in Trier, Germany.

This lovely Hellenistic mosaic glass bowl looks so modern, yet it was made over 2,000 years ago!

Ancient glassmakers created the tiny flower pattern using a technique now known as ‘millefiori’ (thousand flowers). A timeless design still made by glassmakers today!

This is the famous #Roman Portland Vase housed in the @britishmuseum Like most cameo glass it dates to between 25BC-25AD & was made by the dip-overlay method - an elongated bubble of glass was partially dipped into a crucible of white glass, before the two were blown together.
