Bottle 12th-13th century

This 12th-13th century "Bottle" is a striking example of ancient glassblowing. Made by anonymous artists, the bottle features a bulbous base with a tall, slender neck and is decorated with blue and white enamels, which create a vibrant contrast against the clear glass. The Art Institute of Chicago houses this beautiful piece, a testament to the skill and artistry of glassmakers in the Middle Ages.
