Tall German Glass Beaker in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, January 2010

Tall German Glass Beaker in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, January 2010
Glass Beaker
Made in Germany, about 1550

Accession # 27.185.203

This exceptionally tall, straight-sided glass sometimes called a Stangenglas (pole glass), is as richly ornamented on the inside as well as on the outside. It is a rare example of a glass featuring sharp-pointed spikes that project into the glass.

Text from the Metropolitan Museum of Art label.
