      I think that looks a bit like resin or is it an Incolay product :

      A copy of a 1st century AD Roman piece found in a grave site at Couvin, Namur in 1893.

      Yep, Kevin is right, Incolay! Kevin's the best!!!
      I just found too the lecture of the Couvin's goblet.
      It seems the words are the names of the conductors, meaning is to encourage them :-)
