Bowl

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The bowl by artist named unknown, titled "Bowl", is a glass object with a wide mouth and a narrow base. The bowl's body is dark blue with numerous small, light blue oval indentations covering its surface. The rim of the bowl is white with a ruffled edge, and it transitions to a purple hue towards the base. The bowl appears to be sitting on a small, circular silver or metallic base. The background is a gradient of dark green to light blue, with the bowl casting a shadow on the surface below it.
