Physical Description"Patrician" Wine Decanter with Stopper. Colorless glass. The vessel and stopper were blown into wooden molds; the foot of the decanter was blown and attached to the mold-blown body with a short stem. After being annealed, the bubbles of the decanter and the stopper were cracked off and the edges polished. The decanter (a) is an ovoid body that opens into a waisted neck and flared rim. The body is attached to the circular foot with a short cylindrical stem. The stopper (b) is a solid, acorn-shaped shaft that transitions into a narrow cylindrical stem and terminates in a hollow inverted bell-shaped shot glass.
