Verified profile

Ampoule with high neck and ovoid body, used as a container of scented water. The decoration, divided on the body into three horizontal registers, is based exclusively on arabesques intertwined with thin silver threads. The central register, wider, shows a very dense tangle that reveals its distant vegetal origin; the two upper and lower registers, much narrower, also reflect designs of vines and tendrils and are each divided into four sectors by small rosettes. Below the lower register there is a crown of small pearls; on the rounded part above the shoulder we find the motifs of the central band. The neck has a first short truncated cone section followed by a somewhat spherical swelling and then by a long thin cone that culminates in a spheroidal mouth.
