The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Green glass pitcher with handle on right side. The pitcher has a round base and a bulbous body that tapers up to a flared mouth. It features diagonal ribbed lines running from the lower left to upper right. The handle is attached to the body and curves back, ending in a circular attachment point. The pitcher sits on a short circular foot. The background is light gray, with the pitcher casting a shadow to the lower right.
