Description |
Like a rose, the precious scent this vessel once held was guarded by thorn-like protrusions. The spikes could not hold back the hand of time, however, which has robbed the vessel of its fragrant contents. As if to compensate for that loss, the centuries have added a luster as radiant as moon glow to the surface of the glass.
