This Gorgeous Late Victorian Antique Blown And Ruffled Blue Opaline Glass Bowl is probably of American manufacture, however could be of English origin as well and was made approximately 1890-1900. It measures 11 1/2" Diameter. It has a gracious ruffled edge with an exquisite hand painted floral motif internally. The color of the flowers are green and red. The glass on the outside is white opaline. Originally these bowls were placed into a silver plated stand and were called “Bridal Baskets”.
If one cares to do more research on such glass, he will see that opaline glass has a rich history both in the English culture as well as the American culture during the Art Nouveau period.
COMMENT: This Elegant Ruffled Antique Glass Bridal Bowl has a nice opalescent glow when held to the light. It would make a very Sophisticated Wedding Gift! No pun intended! It is also worthy of being placed in an antique glass collection.
CONDITION: Excellent! There is no flaking to any of the enameling, no chips, no cracks or staining. The dark spots seen from the reverse side is the fact of the transparency of the glass. The hand-painted flowers on the inside of the bowl show when held to light. It is not staining.
