The upturned pear-shaped body stands on a horny foot and ends in a long, narrowing thin widening neck. It has a splaying, ringed top rim. There is a wavy glass thread running along just beyond the foot, surmounted by six, drop-shaped glass drops. The top third of the body is connected with the neck with three handles there are three, horizontal glass ribs at the shoulder line. The top rim is also lined with a glass thread identical with that above the toot. The object, the handles and the decoration suggest 16ht-17th century Spanish glass models. The whole surface is iridescent.
