Title: Glass bowl
Post by: greenacres on March 20, 2017, 05:13:02 pm

This bowl I think is beautiful. I'm not sure I took all the right photos. I see something after the fact.

This Lotus bowl was designed by Wayne Husted after he left Blenko glass  It was produced by Viking glass & came in many colors. Value in current market around $10.00. Very pretty piece!   :)

It is beautiful. The problem is I can't keep everything. I have to decide and it's hard.

Gorgeous.  Can't tell the size but if it is large could be used as a Montieth!  :)  (See if you know what that is!)

Yes & No!  A Monteith is a scalloped edge bowl (most see them as silver punch bowls) where one could hang one or many glasses to chill.

Here is a great article to read on them:  http://uncorked.winterthur.org/consumption-equipage/monteiths/ (http://uncorked.winterthur.org/consumption-equipage/monteiths/)

If its big enough I would put crushed ice in the bowl and the glasses as in the article !! Water drips everywhere,,Ice is not as bad and would keep cool till the ice melts !! Perfect bowl for that !!
