A translucent bluish-green glass tumbler tapers from a wide rim into a thick, heavy base. Swirling vertical ridges create an undulating texture across the exterior, catching light in narrow bands. The color deepens from a pale sea-foam at the top to a saturated teal at the bottom. Scattered within the material are tiny air bubbles and subtle imperfections, giving the vessel a handcrafted quality.
