Vessel

Dusty amber glass with a flared neck, the surface frosted by the long years.

This vessel is Islamic, and dates to the 7th century. It is blown glass. Blown glass was widely made across the Mediterranean and Middle East from the Roman period on, with small bottles and flasks used for oils and perfumes. The vessel has a long cylindrical neck with a thick rolled rim and a squared body. The glass is cloudy and pale yellow, mottled with red-brown deposits, and the sides are slightly flattened. It is 1 inch wide, 1 deep and 2.5 high.

Very small, and very much still glass.
