Y’all come quick, the museums are doing super bowls again
romanpalace.bsky.social Fishbourne Roman Palace @romanpalace.bsky.social · Feb 9
If anyone thinks they have a Bowl more Super than ours, they are sadly deluded. 😎
A restored Roman Samian bowl. Check it out. It's a beauty! Dramatic lighting shows off the scrolling patters to maximum effect. This Bad Boy is from our collections and dates to, give or take, 100AD (we can't be more precise as we don't have access to our catalogue at the moment).

Every museum should have a Little Guys Tour, and at the end of the tour you can buy reproductions of all the little guys
Egyptian Blue Bes ceramic Statue from the British museum shop, kind of looks like a tiny suspicious bear? He's adorable A middle Egyptian turquoise hippo from the met. He looks despondent and adorable. He has line art of reeds painted on his back and face. A ceramic baby rattle from the met shaped like a pig. However it doesn't look much like a pig, it's giving creature saying ooooooo. It's adorable. Little red earthenware bowl from the met. It has two little humanoid feet on the bottom and looks like he's standing shyly. Adorable.
