Object type: WINDOW GLASS
Broad period: ROMAN
County: Suffolk
Workflow stage: Published
Fragment of Roman window glass with one original edge. A translucent pale greyish green in colour, both faces are matt but one is much rougher than the other. (This is caused by blowing a cylinder, cutting it up one side and allowing it to flatten onto a sand bed). 37.5 mm long (parallel to the original edge) and 19 mm wide, and just over 5 mm thick. The original edge is rounded, but slopes much more gently to the smoother face.

Object type: BEAD
Broad period: EARLY MEDIEVAL
County: Suffolk
Workflow stage: Published
Cylindrical glass bead with rounded ends, made of semi-translucent pale aquamarine or turquoise glass. It is 14 mm long and 11 mm in diameter, with a 4 mm perforation. Dating this bead has proved difficult. Cylindrical shapes are not found among pre-Roman beads. No parallel can be found in M. Guido's Prehistoric and Romano-British Glass Beads (1978). Catherine Johns of the British Museum thinks it is not Roman. This leaves early Anglo-Saxon as the most likely option, but it is an unusual colour. Leslie Webster of the British Museum has seen it and has suggested that the unusual …

Object type: VESSEL
Broad period: ROMAN
County: Suffolk
Workflow stage: Published
Fragment of rim from a shallow dish made from tubes of dark green glass with a yellow coating, set into a background of similar dark green glass. The green glass is translucent and the yellow glass more opaque. The rim is slightly turned out and the grinding lines show that the dish was cast, not blown. This is a rare kind of glass and probably an import from Italy.
