Alt Text
A three-dimensional model of a tall, narrow, glass bottle with a slightly flared top and a teardrop-shaped body that is approximately the same width as the opening. The vessel leans slightly when sitting on its base. The opening has a distinct and thick but uneven rim where the neck flares outward. The 3D model can be freely moved, rotated, and zoomed in and out to allow the viewer to inspect the object from multiple angles. A small, still image of the object is also included, with the object against a white background and a measurement scale in centimeters below it.
