An Omom Form

from Elizabeth Creech of Brevard, NC

Hi Alan,

I’ve been enjoying the Air-Trap examples with the silver overlay. Do you have room for one more? I have attached an example of Mother of Pearl Satin Glass with a Peacock Eye pattern, rarely seen in perfume bottles. The bottle itself is the form of an omom, a 13th century Syrian form. The heavy silver overlay is engraved with the name Bella–she must have been a very special lady!
