Royal Scot Crystal Hand-Cut Lead Crystal Votive Holder or Candle Bowl

This is a small, spherical votive holder or decorative bowl manufactured by Royal Scot Crystal. The piece is crafted from high-quality hand-cut lead crystal, exhibiting the characteristic weight and brilliance associated with fine British glassware. It features a classic 'London' or 'Highland' style cross-cut pattern that wraps around the globular body, creating multiple facets that refract light exceptionally well. The top has a polished flat rim, and the base is weighted for stability. Notably, the item retains its original blue and silver adhesive manufacturer's label which reads 'ROYAL SCOT CRYSTAL, HAND-CUT LEAD CRYSTAL', indicating it likely dates from the late 20th century to early 21st century. The condition appears excellent with no visible chips, flea bites, or internal clouding. The clarity of the crystal is high, showing no significant yellowing or manufacturing bubbles. The hand-cutting is deep and precise, evidencing skillful craftsmanship. Its small scale suggests use as a tealight holder or a small condiment bowl, designed to complement a formal tabletop setting.
