Four-handled ovoid cosmetic jar: this jar has a cylindrical neck and a hollow trumpet-shaped base with flat rim. The body is of opaque dark-blue glass, a colour repeated in the four vertical monochrome handles. A chevron pattern in opaque yellow, turquoise-blue, and white decorates the neck and the flat rim. These colours are repeated in the simple festoons of the body. All surfaces are glossy. One handle is lost.
