Bottle in the form of a Pig c. 18th century

This 18th-century glass bottle, shaped like a pig, is an example of the playful and functional artistry of the era. The translucent, slightly pink glass has a textured surface, adding to the charming character of the animal form. The pig's upturned snout and short, sturdy legs contribute to its endearingly stout appearance. The bottle's unique form and its inclusion in a museum collection suggest its potential as a decorative and utilitarian object, reflecting the craftsmanship and cultural values of the time.
