The image depicts a gray Bottle by Unknown. The bulbous vessel has a narrow neck and mouth. Two small, looped handles protrude from either side of the neck. A line of raised bumps encircles the middle of the body. A raised design resembling a leaf or feather is on the lower half. A small, circular base supports the vessel. A ruler or measuring scale is at the bottom, with text reading "THE METROPOLITAN MUSEUM". The background is light gray.
