Vessels/Containers
This category includes hollow containers, especially ones used to hold liquid or food.
This category includes hollow containers, especially ones used for storing, serving, or cooking. These can be made of any material, and in various shapes. We have divided them into two main subgroups, open and closed. Open forms have a shoulder to rim angle that is 90 degrees or larger. Closed forms have a shoulder to rim angle that is less than 90 degrees.
