Roman Milan cage cup: The Coppa diatreta Trivulzio at the Museo archeologico Milan, the only example with no damage at all. This has the inscription: BIBE VIVAS MVLTIS ANNIS: “Drink and you will live for many years”. It is 4th century, found in the 17th century in a sarcophagus. [1501×1434]

I just read about these guys!! Apparently there is some debate as to whether the cup cage is carved from the same single block of glass as the cup or if It is a separate piece that is joined (evidence seems to say the former!)
