| Here is an extremely elegant American cut crystal oval centerpiece bowl with a pretty engraved upper border of sterling silver. The crystal is very clean and clear and has been deeply and skillfully cut into a lovely pattern consisting of floral forms floating prettily above stylized vases overflowing with extravagant plume-like foliage and leaves. The design has been cleverly conceived to convey a sense of motion and movement and to emphasize the bowl’s elongated ovoid silhouette. On the base, the center of the bowl has been deeply cut into an unusual and attractive floriform pattern. The crystal has been beautifully complemented by the pretty sterling silver upper rim which has been decorated with delightful little posies scattered between simplified depictions of the flowing floral design on the glass below. The combination of the crisply cut crystal with the soft patina of the silver rim has created a bowl of great beauty and distinction which would highlight any setting. The centerpiece is in excellent condition with no chips or damage on the crystal and with fine quality on all the engraved silver. On the underside of the silver rim there is a pattern number and the word Sterling has been stamped. There is no maker’s mark visible. This stylish and sophisticated centerpiece measures approx. 16 ¾” x approx. 13” x approx. 3” tall. Price: $4,500.00 Stock #BB139 |
