A Handblown Olive/Amber Glass "Persian Style" Saddle Flask
An appealing hand-formed glass saddle flask featuring a flattened, asymmetric teardrop silhouette terminating in a tapered neck and an applied, thickened collar rim. The glass matrix is highly characterful, displaying dense, primitive "seed bubbles" and elongated internal air inclusions throughout. The distinctive flattened profile historically allowed such vessels to be easily packed flush into travel packs or textile side saddles for transit. Features a rough, snapped or lightly ground pontil scar on the underside.7 1/2â€
