One of the Best Anderson Bowls – Comet – SOLD |
This bowl is cut in Anderson’s Comet design – very easily one of his best that’s been discovered. It features an unusual inverted design that is almost singular to this pattern alone.
A fan of chains of hobstars shoots from smaller hobstars arranged around the bowl. They are framed with tight crosshatching, clear button hobstars and notching. The fans run right up into the edge for an unusual tooth arrangement. The design then inverts and repeats itself in the opposite direction. The center of the bowl is finished in a large 32-point hobstar.
The bowl is on a gorgeous blank and in perfect condition. It measures 9″ tall and 4 1/2″ tall. This is one of the most beautiful designs of the Brilliant Period.
