Flanged silver bowl and cover from the Mildenhall treasure, Roman Britain, 3rd-4th century. It has a dropped horizontal rim and niello decoration. It has a border of Bacchic ornament in relief. The small statuette of a triton which forms a knob may not have been part of the lid's original design. It was not designed to have a lid. The deep domed cover was made later, some time in the fourth century, either for another bowl, or perhaps specifically to fit this one. This bowl is the earliest vessel in the Mildenhall treasure, made in Gaul in the third century.
