Blue Glass Collection Appraisal

Collection of Three Blue Glass Decorative Items

This collection features three distinct pieces of decorative blue glass. The first item is a tall, slender vase, characterized by its vibrant blue hue and elegant, elongated form. It features a flared rim with an irregular, organic shape, reminiscent of a lily or calla lily, and a narrow neck that gradually widens towards a stable, circular foot. The glass has vertical ribbing or fluting along its body, adding to its visual texture and capturing light beautifully. The second item is a boat-shaped or elongated oval dish with a pedestal base. This dish is also made of the same vibrant blue glass, with smooth, slightly undulating edges and a shallow, curved bowl. The base is simple and circular, providing a sturdy foundation. The third item is a smaller, scalloped-edge bowl with an intricate pressed glass pattern known as 'Moon and Stars'. This pattern consists of raised circles (moons) with a star-like motif inside each, giving the bowl a highly tactile and decorative surface. The rim is scalloped and fluted, enhancing its classic appeal. All three pieces share a consistent vivid blue color, suggesting they may be from the same era or manufacturer, or simply a curated collection based on color. The glass appears to be in good condition, with no immediately visible chips, cracks, or significant wear. The pieces likely date from the mid-20th century, a popular period for colored glass production, particularly in decorative home goods. The craftsmanship indicates machine-pressed glass for the bowls and potentially blown glass for the vase, common for mass-produced decorative items of the era. The uniform color and vintage aesthetic make this an attractive set for collectors of colored glass.
