A cantir is a wine jug in a shape unique to Catalonia, a region in Spain. It is distinguished by having a spherical body, two spouts, and a ring-shaped handle. The lace pattern around the body and the glass pips fused at various places indicate that, in terms of decoration, this work was influenced by Venetian glass, but its generous charm is characteristically Spanish.
