Description

Amulet of a ram: walking to the right, in high relief, with flat reverse. Three colours were used in moulding: light and dark blue and opaque white glass, matt surfaces. The mould seems to have been defective as there is no detail on the head although the rest of the body is well modelled. Broken.
