The broad 10.25-inch form combines exceptional crystal mass with dense wheel-cut decoration, creating a highly worked surface of fan, starburst, diamond, crosshatch and geometric motifs.

The bowl is distinguished by a deeply scalloped and cut rim together with extensive decoration carried across the heavy crystal body. At 6.14 lb, the piece has considerable physical presence for its 5-inch height, reinforcing the substantial construction associated with Waterford's more elaborate decorative crystal production.

The underside bears an incised cursive “Waterford” signature, providing direct maker identification. The exact design or pattern name and individual master cutter have not been established, and no Kennedy, Ballina or named artisan attribution is made. The supplied research supports a late twentieth-century Irish origin and describes the bowl as consistent with Waterford Master Cutter Collection production.
