A fragment of a millefiori glass plate from Meroe, with blue flowers on a black background. The millefiore technique originated in Egypt for making decorative inlay plaques. Coloured rods were arranged in a pattern so that they could be fused and made into a composite rod, transverse slices were cut from the composite rod and each produced the original pattern.
