This fish-shaped glass vessel was discovered at the Czarnówko site in the grave of a young woman who was buried at the end of the 2nd century A.D. There is no other example of its type so well-preserved that we know of. Similar vessels can be seen in the collections of the Musée Guimet in Paris (France), the Römisch-Germanisches Museum in Cologne (Germany) and the Corning Museum of Glass in New York.
