Vase

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The Vase by Newcomb College features a white, opaque glass object with a wide base that tapers to a narrow neck. The base has a bumpy texture. A short, wide lip at the top features a scalloped edge. The object is symmetrical and appears to be made of ceramic or glass. The background is gray and transitions from dark at the top to light at the bottom. A shadow is cast to the right.
