Figured flask 1827

This "Figured flask" from 1827, created by Bakewell, Page & Bakewells, is a beautiful example of American glassmaking. The flask is made of aquamarine glass with an intricate design embossed on the surface. The design features an elegant, stylized floral motif surrounding the company's name, "BP & B." This flask, now housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, serves as a reminder of the craftsmanship and artistry that flourished in the 19th century.
