(PC-089)


  • Region: Possibly Shiraz, Persia.
  • Estimated Date of Production: Early to mid-1800s.
  • Dimensions: 229 mm in height, 140 mm by 104 mm circumference.
  • Weight: 253 grams.
  • Colour: Light yellow.
  • Technique:

    3 rings of glass stringing around neck, snapped off and rough lip, pushed up by apparently unpontilled based.

  • Description:

    Light, crudely made bottle that may be from elsewhere in the region, given the differences in construction. Tiny seed bubbles like PC-029, along with similarly thin glass. It has partially cleaned internal content stain and substantial basal wear, so I do not consider it a fake by any means.
