Additional information
The Snowdon Bowl, 25-100 CE. This bronze and iron handle with red glass inlay was found on Grib Goch, Snowdon.

The Snowdon Bowl once had a bronze body with a rounded base. The handle was attached with a decorated mount. Late Iron Age bronze-workers perfected the technique of applying red glass insets to create colourful designs.
