Description: This vessel is a 'marriage' between the sprinkler body and neck and the foot which appears to be from a goblet. The foot is of brownish-glass, circular, slightly domed and folded. The stem is formed by three blown knops attached to the body by a screw. The body is mould-blown with gadrooning on the lower part, a row of projecting tears round the middle and lighter gadrooning on the shoulder, diminishing in intensity and beginning to swirl into the slender neck which bends back and has a pointed cup-mouth. | Format: | text/html | License: | http://www.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/terms.htm | Publisher: | The Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge, UK | Rights holder: | The Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge, UK | Subjects: | vessel Unknown glass | Temporal: | name=17th Century; start=1600; end=1800 | Source: | Fitzwilliam Museum | Creator: | The Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge, UK | Identifier: | http://www.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/opacdire... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | text/html | Go to resource |
