- Lot Description
Near East, Islamic culture, ca. 8th to 9th century CE. A delightful bottle formed from blue green glass to present a cylindrical body enveloped in stippled ribs that vertically spiral up the thick walls. Surmounted by a flattened shoulder and narrow, tubular spout, the once-translucent vessel is covered in layers of weathering film with sparkling areas of iridescence, making the glass now appear almost opaque. All is gracefully supported by a concave base with a deep pontil scar. A stunning example of ancient glass! Size: 2.5" Diameter x 3.6" H (6.4 cm x 9.1 cm)
Exhibited in "Ancient Glass: Selections from the Richard Brockway Collection" at the Hallie Ford Museum of Art at Willamette University, Salem from March 10 to May 19, 2007 and "Glass of the Ancient World" at the Vero Beach Museum of Art, Florida from October 11 to December 28, 2008.
Provenance: private Vero Beach, Florida, USA collection, acquired before 2003
All items legal to buy/sell under U.S. Statute covering cultural patrimony Code 2600, CHAPTER 14, and are guaranteed to be as described or your money back.
A Certificate of Authenticity will accompany all winning bids.

#177420Light surface wear as shown, but otherwise intact and excellent with nice remaining dimples and rich weathering film. Light iridescence in areas. Pontil mark on underside of base. A pontil scar or mark indicates that a vessel was free-blown, while the absence of such a mark suggests that the work was either mold-blown or that the mark was intentionally smoothed away or wore away over time.Condition
