Vinegar Cruet

Dorothy Posten

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a clear glass decanter with a faceted stopper and a round body covered in raised, circular red glass protrusions in an orderly fashion. The color palette includes shades of pink, red, clear glass, and subtle hints of beige from the background. The handle of the decanter arches over the right side, blending into the neutral background.
