緑がかった透明ガラスを、2分割の型に吹き入れて製作された杯である。口辺と底面近くに装飾紐を2本ずつめぐらせ、底も高台風に出ている。文様は茎に8枚の葉と蕾が付いた植物文の繰り返しで、細部まではっきりと浮き出し、型同士の合わせ目の線は細く、質の高い仕上げとなっている。口元がわずかに欠けているが、ほぼ完器である。
Catalogue Entry
This cup made from greenish translucent glass was blown and then formed in a two-part mold. The mouth area and near the base are circled by two cords and the base is formed into a foot shape. The pattern is a repetition of a stem with eight leaves and buds which have been expressed in carefully detailed relief form. There are thin lines where the halves of the mold were joined and overall the cup has been finished with a high degree of skill. There is a slight chip missing at the rim, but otherwise the cup is almost completely intact.
