Why is it masculine?
Verres is masculine in French. It derives from the Latin "vitrum" (neuter), which entered Old French as a masculine noun. In Latin, neuter nouns ending in -um typically became masculine in Old French when the final -um was dropped, as the language lost its neuter gender category. The word "verre" follows this regular sound change pattern from Latin to French.
