Description

Eight glass vessels stand in two rows on shelves against a plain grey backdrop. The upper row holds a footed cup, a knobbed bottle with a tall neck, a round flask with a flared rim and a ribbed jug with a looped handle. The lower row holds a deep bowl, a small flared cup, a flat disc-shaped piece and a globular jar with a wide rim, with dark, iridescent weathering on the glass.
