The compact 5.25-inch form combines a deep bowl with a turned pedestal and broad circular foot, giving the piece considerable architectural presence despite its relatively small scale.

The clear crystal is extensively worked with dense cross-cut diamond decoration and deeply cut fan motifs around the upper register. The substantial pedestal and decorated foot continue the formal treatment throughout the object. At 3.3 lb, the bowl is exceptionally heavy for its dimensions, reflecting the thickness of the crystal blank and the extent of the cutting.

The Waterford acid mark is present, confirming manufacture by Waterford Crystal. The supplied research identifies the design within Waterford's Prestige Collection and supports a late twentieth-century Irish date. No individual master cutter's engraved signature has been reported, so the piece is not described as personally signed by a named cutter.
