Oversized Decorative Glass Brandy Snifter with Glass Gems

This item is a large-scale, clear glass decorative snifter, commonly utilized as a tabletop centerpiece or floral vessel. The piece stands on a wide, circular footed base with a thick, mold-blown glass stem that supports a cavernous, rounded bowl tapering slightly toward the rim. The glass appears to be standard decorative grade soda-lime glass rather than lead crystal, evidenced by the thickness of the rim and the visible refraction in the base. Contained within the bowl are approximately two to three inches of translucent, flattened glass gems or cabochons, which serve as a weighted filler and decorative element. The construction is robust, designed for stability rather than delicate stemware use. The condition appears fair to good; there is a visible chip or rough spot on the upper rim (approximately at the one o'clock position), and the glass exhibits surface streaks and dust consistent with residential use. There are no immediate signs of a maker's mark or signature, suggesting it is a contemporary mass-produced decor item, likely from the late 20th or early 21st century. The glass gems add significant weight to the piece, while the scale of the snifter makes it a distinct statement piece for interior styling.
