It measures about 7" in height and 3.5" in diameter.

The pattern in this blown glass vase is achieved by cutting small glass rods and tiles, called murrine, and arranging them in a pattern, then fusing them together in a 2100 degree kiln. A blow pipe is then rolled along the edge of the glass to form a cylinder. The bottom of the cylinder is closed, which creates a bubble, allowing the glass to then be blown and shaped into the vase.
