Blue-tinted glass, hand-blown, with consistent transparency and a slightly molded, thick base. The color is concentrated mainly in the base and handle, creating a distinct blue halo in the light. Height 26 cm. Neck diameter 9 cm. Base diameter 11.5 cm. Solid base 8.5 cm. Estimated capacity between 2.3 and 2.5 L (based on the theoretical volume of a cylinder of this height and diameter). The handle is attached, shaped into a loop and secured with two fused glass discs. The spout is hot-formed, rounded, and discreet. The overall design evokes the handcrafted glassware typical of the 1970s: simple shapes, bold colors, and visible hand-blown glasswork. Normal condition: minor surface marks, visible only when held up to the light; no cracks or chips observed. The light shines through the blue like a summer streak that refuses to fade.
