A clear glass vessel features a wide, circular foot and a tall, conical bowl. Engraved vines and floral motifs wind around the exterior, with matching patterns decorating the base. Shapes scratched into the glass surface consist of scrolling foliage and blossoms. Between the bowl and foot, the stem consists of three stacked, rounded segments; the central one is textured with vertical ridges. Light highlights the intricate, scratched details from rim to base.
