During this period, glass production transitioned from simple forms to intricate designs, showcasing the Romans' advanced techniques such as blowing and molding. The variety of glassware, including vessels, ornaments, and personal items, reflects the cultural and social dynamics of the Roman Empire. This era not only highlights the technical prowess of Roman artisans but also their ability to blend utility with beauty, leaving a lasting legacy in the world of glassmaking.

They were produced in different sizes tand shapes to preserve cosmetics, oils, perfumes, juices and wine.
