Spectacular, Unusual Mt. Washington? Bowl – SOLD |
I have never seen this design before, but it is very similar to a lot of pieces cut by Mt. Washington in the early portion of the Brilliant Period.
The center of this bowl features two stacked 10-point hobstars. From each point is a long, two-sided channel leading upt o fan cutting at the edge. In between each channel are alternating panels. One panel houses Russian cutting, while the second has a triple miter, Macdonald style motif. I’ve never seen anything quite like it.
The bowl is in excellent condition measuring 9 1/2″ wide and 4″ tall. It’s wood wheel polished and consistent in quality with some of Mt. Washington’s greatest works.
