Hey Jane, "Holyland glass juglet amulet; cf. Kofler-Truniger 204, 2.5 cm (1"), blue glass with a high open handle, mangnificent silvery iridescence; $225.00 From the collection of Alex G. Malloy, former dealer in antiquities for 40 years. Ex Robert Haas collection. In the Ernesto Wolf Collection, Marianne Stern argues the distribution of this type of juglets, from the Holy Land to western Europe, indicates they were produced in Palestine as early Christian amulets and taken as relics or souvenirs from holy areas." From. From.
