Located in Dublin, Ireland
An impressive George II hand cut full led Irish Crystal Pedestal “Kettle Drum” Bowl of circular outline and unusually large proportions. Made by the Old Waterford Glass Company, County Tipperary in Ireland. Late Eighteenth, early Nineteenth Century.

Height: 8.25" (21cm). Depth: (square base) 3.5" (9cm).
Location: Dublin City, Ireland.
