Shown here are

  • Viola – Violet
  • Iasminium Jasmine
  • Melinum Qince flower

The perfume bottles (Ungnentaria) used by the Romans were made of alabaster, onyx or glass, The forms of bottles, cases, bowls, flagons shown here are simple but refined decorative arts.Fashion played a part in the structural form of the containers but so did class distinction.
