Hand Blown Cobalt Blue Glass Stemmed Desert Bowl

About the Item

The 1950s 8-inch stemmed cobalt blue glass bowl or centerpiece has a deep, vibrant blue hue, achieved by adding cobalt oxide to the glass mixture during production. This rich and luminous color catches and reflects light beautifully. The bowl is polished, with a smooth exterior and a glossy finish, highlighting the depth of the cobalt blue. The hand-blown stem adds elegance and stability. The post-war era saw a resurgence in the popularity of cobalt blue glass, with mid-century modern design embracing bold colors and innovative glass techniques. This piece could serve both decorative and functional purposes. It could be used as a centerpiece, filled with fruit, and flowers, or simply left empty to display its artistic beauty. Its striking color and elegant form make it a conversation piece in any setting. 8 1/4" tall x 8" diameter United States, 1950
