glass vessels

Clear holding jars

Glass vessels are containers made of glass—bottles, jars, vases, beakers, and similar receptacles.

The term appears most often in technical, archaeological, or formal contexts: Ancient glass vessels were recovered from the shipwreck.

In chemistry, glass vessels hold reactions without contaminating them.
