With a rim that has a flared mouth to a cylindrical neck. The single trail is applied to the base of the neck and drawn downward in a spiral, ending on bottom. Additionally it’s base is flattened with a distinctive pontiff mark.

Intact with surface pitting and pearlescent iridescent weathering.

A very fine addition to any Roman glass collection.
