A three-dimensional model of a greenish-grey and tan glass bottle with a narrow neck and a slightly wider base. The bottle appears to have some wear and discoloration. 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.
