Glass mosaic plaque fragment with floral motifs
Deep cobalt blue ground, appearing black; decoration in opaque white, yellow, and red, and other, uncertain colors.
Thin, flat plaque, with rough, uneven back.
Floral motif with individual plants picked out in detail on ground, including a poppy seed head and a long ear of wheat.
Broken on all sides, with weathered edges; dulling, pitting and pale creamy weathering on upper side, iridescence on underside.
The attractive polychromy of the floral designs on this fragment are now masked by a layer of brownish surface weathering.
