Abstract

Teardrop-shaped bottle has tan deposits on the surface which obscure the base. The object is not free-standing. The rim is folded inward; the depth of the fold overhangs the diameter of the throat. The cylindrical neck is interrupted by a gentle indentation before expanding to the piriform body.
