This Chinese transparent tulip-shaped glass beaker is gracefully decorated with an incised dragon which is defined by two framing lines. Another dragon stands out on one side of the beaker, and it was likely part of the original mould used to cast the whole beaker. A light incised decoration of a geometric motifs covers even the long foot of the beaker. The thick glass is well decoloured and it resembles the clarity and purity of rock crystal.
The vessel is in very good conditions with all the incised decoration well preserved.
