About this work
The pointed oval, vaulted vessels (A, B, C and D), which have slightly raised walls on the sides, rest on an oval foot that tapers strongly upwards with a straight-walled base. The body is pierced with alternating knops and rosettes. Pearl strings run around the foot, around the upper edge of the body and over the high-rising, curved handles. Blue glass liners fit into the vessels, of which D has been repaired with pins.
