Translucent deep turquoise green, appearing black; vessel wall colorless.
Thick oval appliqué attached to wall of vessel; on inside of wall, bulb.
Grotesque female mask with straight-haired peruke, parted at middle and with an outturned fringe at sides of face; deep eye holes and large curved mouth cavity.
