View translationAncient Roman Lead Mirror - 103 mm (No Reserve Price)
No. 88445007
Ancient Roman Lead Mirror, 1st-3rd Century AD
A cast lead mirror with a handle and inscription in Greek going around the obverse,
56 grams, 103 mm.
From the collection of European gentlemen living in London. Fine condition. LITERATURE:
Cf. Spasić Durić, D., Град Виминацијум-The city of Viminacium, (in Serbian), Pozarevac, 2015, fig.78, for similar.
FOOTNOTES:
Many examples of this category from the Danube region were found in female graves, where they possibly served as grave goods considered appropriate for their connection with general issues of fertility, good fortune, and beauty, or even as protective amulets. Since lead mirror frames have been found in this Roman province only in graves of women, it is probable that these miniature mirrors, fitted with a central glass, were expected to serve as ritual or magical tools to assist the souls of dead women in the afterlife.
A Certificate of Authenticity can be provided upon request.
For shipment between countries within the EU, no export permit is needed. The seller guarantees to have acquired this lot by legal means and he has the proper permits. The seller will inform the buyer about this if acquiring the proper permits and shipping the lot takes more than a few days.

Dear Customer, you are welcome to return the object if you feel not satisfied. However, I strongly believe that the pin belongs originally to the fibula.
bel objet mais attente un mois bloquée à la douane et frais supplémentaire de 48 euro dommage
