The silhouette and size of this glass vessel finds a close parallel with one acquired by the British Museum in 1887 (1887,1121.4), while an example in green glass joined the collection in 1902 after being excavated at Atfih, near Giza (1902,0517.7). The decoration on the present lot, however, finds its closest parallel with the concentric motifs which were applied at uneven intervals with a pattern mould onto the surface of a small glass flask in the Khalili Collection (Sidney M. Goldstein, Glass: from Sassanian antecedents to European imitations, Oxford, 2005, p. 94, no.100).
