How would you describe roman vases?
Ancient Romans used vases for decorative purposes for hundreds of years. Many of the finest pieces were imported from abroad from places such as Syria, Egypt and other locations. The first early vases were simple ones made from clay. Examples of many of the different types of vases were discovered so well preserved from excavations at Pompeii. The most valuable ones were made from blown glass. During the reign of Tiberius, the art of creating high end vases came from Alexandria. Once the glass blowing method was well known in Italy, places like Cumae, Aquieia became ceters of glass blown vases. To the present day, collectors of antiquity prize these vases made in ancient times. Some have been given names such as "portland vases, blue glass vases and murrhine style vases.
