Normal gloss black will do it. Or matt black would work too.

I used hammerite as I was using it for something else at the time and it also worked! Wouldn't of been my first choice though

Does it leave a good finish was it the pot or rattle can you used, I'm thinking hycote gloss black, did you use primer or was it quick sand and spray, as the glass is not clear clear I would thought any messy bits would be well hidden lol
