The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Clear glass vessel in the shape of a bird, with archaic designs. The vessel is shaped like a bird with its legs, body, and wings. The body is short and squat. The head and neck are not visible. Two handles protrude from either side of the body near the top. The top is flat and round with a depression in the center. The entire vessel features intricate carvings and designs. The background is dark at the top, fading to light gray at the bottom.
