About the Item

A wonderful and rare (only one I have ever seen) art deco or earlier glass clam shell shaped bowl/dish, made in opaline/opalescent glass. Manufacturer unknown, thought to be British. Please note: the plastic stand is for display purposes only and is not included. Size Measures approx 3.25 inches tall by 9.5 inches in diameter at widest point. Condition Good condition, just a few tiny nibbles and one tiny split to the rim, about 1cm long/deep, all shown in final pictures. All only visible on close inspection. Also has a couple of manufacturing "straw marks", as you would expect of pressed glass from this era.
