Mid-Century Modern Hand-Blown Large Amethyst Glass Centerpiece Bowl
This striking Mid-Century Modern centerpiece bowl is a masterclass in artisanal glassblowing. Hand-crafted in a rich, deep amethyst hue, the bowl features a sophisticated swirled optic pattern that captures and refracts light beautifully.
The piece showcases superior craftsmanship with a substantial folded rim and a distinct open pontil scar on the base, attesting to its free-blown, non-mass-produced origin. Measuring an impressive 14 inches in diameter, its generous scale makes it a perfect focal point for a formal dining table or a sleek credenza.
Period: Mid-20th Century.
Style: Mid-Century Modern.
Materials: Hand-Blown Amethyst Glass.
Dimensions: 14" Diameter x 3.5" Height.
Condition:
Excellent Vintage Condition. The bowl is structurally sound with no chips, cracks, or repairs.

The upper surface and folded rim remain in exceptional condition, and the raw pontil scar on the base is a natural result of the hand-blowing process.
A quintessential example of Mid-Century Modern artistry, this large-scale bowl is designed to be a conversation starter. Its rich amethyst hue and sculptural swirled optic pattern will add a sophisticated pop of color and historical charm to any contemporary table or sideboard.
