Physical DescriptionTranslucent deep blue glass, bubbly with trails of opaque white and opaque yellow, unweathered, some dull areas; core-formed, trail-decorated and tooled. Fragment preserves thickened rounded rim which bends sharply down into a wide cylindrical neck. Trails of opaque white and opaque yellow alternate on surface and have been dragged up and down creating an elaborate festoon or feather decoration which has been marvered into the surface and subsequently tooled to form the rim which also preserves this motif.Provenance
