Glass situla with silver handles. Greek, Late Classical or Early Hellenistic, late 4th to early 3rd c. B.C. Metropolitan Museum of Art.

From the Met:

The situla was used for cooling and serving wine at banquets. This one is made of almost colorless glass. It was cast and carved, and then bands of gilded and painted decoration were applied around the outside. The vessel is highly unusual in both shape and decoration, and few parallels in glass are known.

Apollo with goddess. Apollo, god of music, holds his kithara, a lyre used in performance. The seated female before him may be his sister Artemis.
