Description

A small, flat, wedge-form bottle of molded plastic, roughly rectangular in side profile, taller/thicker at the neck end and tapering toward the opposite (far) end, which terminates in a scalloped, ribbed edge. Each broad face carries a central panel of parallel ribbing within a rounded-end frame, surrounded by a finely stippled diamond/cross-hatch texture. A short cylindrical neck at one upper corner carries a ribbed screw cap. The body is an opaque rose-pink. No printed or applied label is present on the surfaces shown. One of three near-identical flasks in the collection differing only in color (teal, orange, pink); cataloged as a separate object.
