Description

Silver bead or fragment of a diminutive balsamarium. Two sheets of silver may be detected in the neck of this tiny object so that it is quite possible that it should be called a balsamarium rather than a bead.

Length 0.8 cm
Credit Line Purchased from Francesco Mancinelli-Scotti; Subscription of Phebe A. Hearst, 1898
