Description

A small bottle with a long narrow neck, a flared rim and a rounded, pear-shaped body, standing upright on a cloth. Its dark surface is thickly encrusted with weathering, and pale flaking patches, possibly remnants of decoration, show on the neck and shoulder. The print sits on a cream card mount with a plain grey background.
