OVERSIZED Victorian-era Bohemian cased art glass Bride’s Bowl, attributed to Harrach, featuring a vibrant hand-painted floral enamel motif, a ruffled and crimped rim, and a stunning uranium glass base layer that glows brightly under UV light (395nm).The bowl sits atop a period-appropriate silver-plated stand. Stand was made by Rockford Silver Plate Company, and is in excellent condition.***[READ CAREFULLY]!!!!!
Although this stand looks perfect with this bowl.. the curvature of the ruffles matching parallel with the basket, the basket handle does not pull upright when the bowl is in the basket.
The bowl is simply to big!!!
This piece of glass is being offered from my personal collection, and I chose a basket very carefully. I was disappointed the handle wasnt large enough to full upright, but decided to keep it anyways because other than that, it looked like the basket and bowl were made for eachother.
