Description

A translucent blown glass jar with a wide, slightly flared mouth, a raised ring around the neck and a body that tapers down to a rounded base. The glass shows scattered dark specks and surface marks, and a bright highlight sits on the lower body. The jar stands alone on a plain grey backdrop, photographed from slightly above.
