A three-dimensional model of a small glass bottle with a rectangular cross-section. All four sides of the bottle's body are flat. A wide, cylindrical neck and opening sits at the top of the object and is pinched in slightly where it connects with the rectangular body. 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.
