I decided to show it for it is an interesting piece the coulored inlays are also most unusual for the very pale yellow is infact a true enamel whereas the red is more of a hard paste as used by the Romans in many situations of inlay. I would think that as this kind of inlay has interested me on many occasions I realy should think of having a good analysis carried out on the red substance and indeed on othe inlayed objects I have with other coulors.
