The substantial glass body is molded with a striking geometric block pattern that creates star-like facets throughout the bowl, beautifully catching and reflecting the light.
An ornate continuous silver overlay encircles the upper portion, composed of floral sprays, scrolling foliage, garland-like swags, and classical decorative motifs. The center of the bowl features a molded frosted grape and leaf medallion, adding another layer of texture and visual interest.
The wide flared profile, scalloped silhouette, and richly detailed silver decoration give the piece an elegant mid-century formal-table aesthetic. Silver-overlay glassware of this general type is associated with American decorative glass companies including Silver City Glass Company; however, this example bears no visible maker’s mark or label, so the maker is not definitively identified. Comparable Silver City pieces are documented with silver overlay and scalloped rims.
A beautiful statement piece for a dining table, console, sideboard, or holiday tablescape, whether displayed empty or used as a decorative centerpiece.
