Photograph of a greenish glass bottle/vase-like vessel with two vertical handles and a flared neck, shown on a light background with labels attached nearby.
The object is a transparent green glass vessel with a rounded body, a narrower waist, and a flaring/cupped mouth. Two loop-like vertical handles rise from the shoulder/neck area, and the neck is thicker with a slightly everted rim. Faint surface scratches and hairline cracks are visible, and there are decorative or incidental incised/painted lines on the body (including faint crosshatching and a curved motif near the lower area). Small handwritten label fragments are present in the background, but no clear, full hieroglyphic/Greek/Coptic/Arabic text is legible on the vessel itself. A museum/catalog number label appears to be on the supporting card rather than on the artifact.
