The object is a tall, clear glass caster, also known as a sugar caster or pepper caster. The top portion has a small knob and features a perforated metal cover with a lattice pattern. The metal cover and small handle are silver-colored. The body of the caster is composed of two parts: the top is narrower and tapers outward, while the bottom is wider with a rounded base. Two horizontal silver bands encircle the glass. The caster stands on a plain, light gray background. The object is titled "Caster" and attributed to artist Adrian Bancker.
