Small glass plaque with lotus capital

7726.jpg

The object is a slice of a rectangular multicolored bar composed of glass rods, forming a lotus capital cased in opaque red glass. The interior of the capital is opaque black and yellow, the other elements are opaque black and white, with a convex green bar on top, while the contours are in translucent blue.
Probably, the slice was to be used as an inlay.
