Large glass pedestal-type eyebath, blown. Clear, colourless glass. Pedestal-type with tall, unusually thick stem featuring a wide bulbous knop at neck and smaller knop towards base, also a tiered, tapering, notably wide round foot, slightly recessed beneath. Stem rises dome-shaped into bowl. Smooth wide and deep bowl, with deliberate flattening to top, in-turned lip, narrow but elongated oval opening and thick, flat and pointed rims.
