Glass squat alabastron (perfume bottle)

Translucent cobalt blue, with handles in same color; trails in opaque yellow and opaque white.
Very broad, thick rim-disk, made as a spiral coil around top of neck; cylindrical neck, tapering downwards; sloping shoulder; slightly elongated bell-shaped cylindrical body; almost flat bottom; on upper body, two vertical ring handles, with long tapering tails, applied over trail pattern.
A yellow trail attached at upper edge of rim-disk; on body, alternating bands of yellow and white, tooled from top of body to undercurve at bottom into a regular feather pattern in twelve vertical panels with alternating upward and downward strokes, forming vertical indents in sides and large round loops at bottom and bottom.
Body complete, but rim-disk broken and repaired, with part missing; dulling, pitting, and creamy iridescent weathering.

Squat alabastra such as these are unusual. The highly weathered surfaces–the result of their being buried in the ground–have obscured the colors and decoration.
