Neck of Flask

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The neck of flask by Isamu Noguchi, features a pale yellow glass object against a white background. The object has a smooth surface with brown spots. The shape resembles a curved piece with a rounded end on top and a broken and jagged edge at the bottom. The glass piece is oriented vertically, with its top to the right and bottom to the left. The color of the glass transitions from dark brown at the top to light yellow towards the bottom. The surface shows minor imperfections and small dark spots scattered throughout. The background is solid white with a subtle shadow cast by the glass.
