Beaker
One of the great Venetian innovations in glassblowing is filigrana. Drawn-out canes of colorless, white, and colored glass were fused together to create the patterned structure of the vessel. Moore had several examples in his collection. The thinly blown blue and white beaker with simple canes, or vetro a fili, is a Dutch example from the early 1600s.
