Free-blown in transparent, pale blue glass,
with added opaque white glass. The near-
spherical body has fine trailing in opaque
white, which spirals from the centre of the
base, up around the body, and continuing
halfway up the tall cylindrical neck, which
has a splayed and folded lip. Intact, a few
small areas of trail missing.
