This gorgeous bowl was cut and signed by the masters at Egginton. It’s my personal opinion that they put out some of the best glass of the Brilliant Period and this bowl exemplifies this.
My eyes are immediately drawn to the cascading tusks that run down the side of the bowl. Tusks were one of the most difficult and unusual cuttings of the period. This bowl uses these tusks so effectively – like a frozen waterfall – it’s particularly stunning. Large vesicas of crosshatching border each “waterfall.” Two graduating, richly cut hobstars come up from the center of the bowl which is also finished with a six sided hobstar.
The bowl is in perfect condition and measures 9″ wide and 4″ tall.
