Amphoriskos (Main View)

Mold-blown splashware amphoriskos of violet, green, and opaque white glass. A multi-colored gather slightly inflated into a mold, then rolled in powdered white glass and returned to the mold. The teardrop-shaped body with a pointed base is decorated with twenty horizontal ridges. The short neck ends with a disk-like rim. Two blue (cobalt) elbowed handles applied to the sides of the rim, drawn out, then down to attach to the shoulder..
