The Portland Vase, a Roman cameo glass vase, which is dated to between AD 1 and AD 25, served as an inspiration to many glass and porcelain makers from about the beginning of the 18th century onwards. It is first recorded in Rome in 1600–1601, and since 1810 has been in the British Museum in London.
