A more rarely seen technical feature is exemplified by the folded flange in the side walls of bowls (HKU.M.2022.2615). This detail is known from eastern Mediterranean objects dating to the first century CE.

​

This bowl was likely used to serve food or drink. The folding of the glass material adds strength to the vessel’s side wall.

​

另一相對罕見技法則為玻璃碗身的捲邊（HKU.M.2022.2615），常見於公元一世紀的地中海東部區域器具。

 

此碗或曾用於盛放食物或飲料，其環狀折卷則鞏固了器壁。
