Description

Three glass vessels, their surfaces darkened in patches, stand upright side by side against a plain grey backdrop. The two on the left are tall, slender tubes with rounded bases; the left one has a broken, uneven rim and the middle one a flared mouth. The vessel on the right has a rounded base and a tall arched handle rising above it, with coiled strips of glass looped around its upper body.
