Alt Text
A three-dimensional model of a tall, narrow, glass vase with a widened base and a flared opening. This vase or bottle was discovered broken into two pieces at its center, though the model includes both halves positioned as if whole. 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.
