This specimen belongs to the types of colour band piriform bottles of glass strips, fused and blown. After cooling, slices were cut from the rod cross-wise, then arranged side-by-side and fused together to create a multi-coloured and multi-patterned sheet of glass. Alternatively, the craftsman, instead of cutting the glass chords, could place them side by side and fuse them together in strips. -
