Mould-blown in translucent, pale-blue glass.
From a two part mould, the body in the
form of a stylised bunch of grapes, with a
tall cylindrical free-blown neck and wide,
folded lip, the base of the neck pushed
downwards to create a hollow collar, the
flat, thickened base with pontil mark. Intact,
some iridescence on the interior.
