Unguent Jar from Neferkhawet's Tomb ca. 1504-1447 B.C. New Kingdom Two cosmetic jars of dark stone were found inside the coffin of Amenemhat, a scribe who lived during the joint reign of Hatshepsut and Thutmose III. The jars were located near the right leg of the mummy next to a hes-vase made of faience. Both contained a brown resinous crust and appear to have been closed with a piece of linen cloth that was tied around the neck with linen cord that was secured with a mud seal.Amenemhat was the son of a man named Neferkhawet, and his burial was found in the family tomb in Western Thebes. This tomb was excavated by the Museum's Egyptian Expedition in 1935 and, at the end of the excavation season, this jar came to New York and the other went to the Egyptian Museum in Cairo..

It was found together with several other small vessels and a female figure in a basket (called "toilet basket I" by the excavators) deposited west of the pyramid of Amenemhat I at Lisht North.

Water jar with spout (vase à bec) second half 16th century French, La Chapelle-des-Pots This water jar comes from Saintes in southwestern France, which was an important center of ceramic production beginning as early as the thirteenth century. The city produced highly creative and versatile ceramics of the finest quality, including those of Saintes-born potter Bernard Palissy. This water jug's bold economic form testifies to the strength of the city's tradition in this craft. Its shape responds perfectly to its function: the round body is echoed in the hoop strap over the cylindrical neck, and three more straps join the neck to the waist in order to facilitate pouring. The thick lead glaze in bright green that coats and protects its surface is standard for lead-glazed green wares from the region. Its form appears to be unique to the sixteenth century..

Vase ca. 1550-1600 (modern foot) Austrian, Hall In 1468 the first Habsburg Holy Roman Emperor, Frederick III, deliberately dropped a glass vase presented to him by the Venetian government, implying that its humble materials were unworthy of him. Mere decades later, Northern royalty courted Venetian glassmakers as they set up workshops in London, Kassel, and the Tyrol. Threatening Venices monopoly and divulging professional secrets, the Italian glassmakers faced exile from their homeland. The rich blue hue of this vase, probably made by Venetians supported by Ferdinand II, Archduke of Austria, was achieved by adding cobalt to the mix; the finely engraved surface decoration was originally picked out in gold-infused paint.[Elizabeth Cleland, 2017.
