Glass horn

Not on view

Translucent blue; trail in opaque white.

Rim folded over and in, and smoothed into top surface of broad, flaring mouth; slender funnel-shaped body, curving down and outwards; jagged pontil scar inside mouth.

Trail applied as a blob to underside of mouth and wound round and down in a spiral, then tooled with eight downward strokes around body, forming long upturned festoons.

Complete as extant, but chips in rim and broken off with weathered edge; some pinprick bubbles; dulling, creamy enamel-like weathering, and iridescence.
