Glass amphoriskos (perfume bottle). Culture: Greek, Eastern Mediterranean. Dimensions: H.: 4 7/8 in. (12.4 cm). Date: late 6th-5th century B.C.. Opaque white, with handles and base-knob in same color; trails in translucent purple. Deeply inward-sloping rim-disk; cylindrical neck tapering upward; uneven, sloping shoulder; tall conical body; large, slanting circular base-knob with rounded edge and slight indent on bottom; two vertical strap handles drawn up from shoulder, turned in, and pressed on to underside of rim-disk and top of neck.
