Pocket flask

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Teardrop-shaped glass vases, three in number, with diamond-shaped etchings on their surface. The vases are made of teal-colored glass and have narrow necks. The leftmost vase is the smallest, the middle vase is the largest, and the rightmost vase is similar in size to the leftmost vase. The background is a gradient of gray, transitioning from dark at the top to light at the bottom. The image is titled "Pocket flask".
