About this work

Concave foot, spun from a single thread. Stuck-on pontil mark. The stem, adorned with twelve round, smooth knobs, is blown as one piece with the funnel-shaped bowl. The transition from the stem to the bowl is indicated by a ribbed thread. On the bowl, between a floral wreath, a bagpiper sitting on a barrel and three dancing peasant couples are engraved.
