Glass oinochoe (perfume jug)

Opaque white, with handle and foot in same color; trails in translucent purple.
Applied broad trefoil rim-disk; rather tall cylindrical neck, slanting forward; broad sloping shoulder; ovoid body; applied outsplayed foot with uneven concave bottom; handle attached to top of body over trail decoration, drawn up and out, then turned in and pressed on to back of neck below rim.
One trail attached at edge of rim-disk; a second fine trail wound horizontally once around shoulder; a thicker trail begun on shoulder and wound spirally, at first in horizontal lines, then tooled into a close-set zigzag pattern around upper half of body; below this, a fourth trail wound horizontally three times around body; finally, a fifth trail wound around edge of foot.
Complete, but broken and repaired bottom of body and top of foot; some dulling and pitting, iridescent weathering, and patches of creamy brown encrustation.

These glass vessels with opaque white bodies and purple threads have been found throughout the Greek world, but most examples are from cemeteries and sanctuaries in the eastern Mediterranean.
