archaeological glass catalogue
Estudio Ciento2 has developed two different series that recreate pre-Roman and Roman glass: “ Mediterranean World “ and “Excavation”. Some pieces are replicas of existing originals in which we reproduce both the physical characteristics and the work processes by which they were created; others are unique designs inspired by ancient glass products. If you are interested in a piece that does not appear in our catalogue please contact us for more information, we’re sure we could bring it to life.
