Elegant cut crystal bowl. The metal plateau it is shown on is for sale separately. This is a good sized, fine cut crystal bowl. Estate sale item; no maker's marks on it. It is 8.5 wide x 5 tall. This bowl throws off a lot of colors in the sun, and is just exceptional quality. It would be stunning on a table all by itself, or with fruit, etc. I have a metal footed base for sale separately that this bowl looks lovely on, see photo #8. This bowl does show some age/wear/scratching on the bottom, and one bubble within the glass, so it is not a brand new bowl, but not sure how old it is. Because the flaws are on the bottom of bowl, I don't consider them to detract from the bowls' beauty. It is a truly exceptional bowl you would be proud to own, use or just display! If you watch Netflix's House of Cards you will see elegant crystal bowls throughout the president's residence in that show. The crystal looks good in traditional as well as modern décor that has grey, silver, pewter, etc. 4/15
