Alcoholic beverage glass
The glass is complete. It is in three parts: the bowl, the stem and the foot. The bowl is conical, with a wall that flares out at the top and a plain rim. The stem is hollow, cylindrical and straight, swelling halfway up. The foot is circular. Its profile is conical. The center of the underside of the foot features a small disk left by the pontil, a tool used by the glassmaker to make the glass ; The decoration is molded onto the bowl. The lower outer third of the bowl is decorated with fine vertical grooves, which appear as ribs on the inner wall. At mid-height, the bowl is decorated with four rows of staggered oval pearls, raised on the outside and recessed on the inside.
