Water glass 18th-19th century

This 18th-19th century anonymous glass water glass, currently housed at the Minneapolis Institute of Art, demonstrates a fascinating use of glassblowing techniques. The intricate, repeating geometric patterns on the surface of the glass, created through mold-blown glassmaking, reflect light and create a dazzling visual effect. This small-scale, utilitarian object showcases the craftsmanship and artistry inherent even in everyday objects.
