this magnificent mouth-blown glass bowl is the work of verrerie la rochère, founded in 1475—one of the oldest glassworks in france still in operation. Its original label, still present on the bowl, attests to its artisanal authenticity.

the wide, flared bowl, with its gently curved sides, rests on a baluster base with a spherical knot, a classic and elegant form inherited from glassmaking tradition. The pontil mark visible on the inside is a subtle reminder of the glassblower's hand. The slight undulations of the glass, inherent to mouth-blowing, give the piece its subtle reflections and unique vibrancy—no two are alike.

perfect as a fruit or punch bowl, it will bring a touch of history and warmth to a beautifully set table, a stylish kitchen, or an elegant living room.
