DescriptionA tall, brown vessel with a handle that rests in between two necks on its top and a short stem with a circular base beneath. The vessel is teardrop-shaped with a handle on either side. Beneath each of the necks is a short spout that nearly comes to a point. The entire surface of this piece is covered with handpainted floral designs that have geometric shapes and birds mixed in. The painting is mostly green, blue and white, but also has orange, yellow and purple elements. Larger objects throughout the design are outlined in gold enamel. Lengths of curled glass run across the top of the handle, around the tops of the necks and stem, and on each of the side handles. The curls are painted white.
