Anchor Hocking Royal Ruby Floral Pattern Berry Bowl

This is a vintage serving or berry bowl made of 'Royal Ruby' glass, characterize by its deep, rich translucent red color. The piece features a highly decorative molded design consisting of a wide floral and leaf band on the lower half of the body, set against a stippled or 'sandblasted' style textured background. Above this decorative band are three distinct horizontal ribbed lines that encircle the circumference. The rim of the bowl is finished with a rhythmic scalloped or 'pie crust' edge. Based on its design and material, this is a product of the Anchor Hocking Glass Corporation, likely dating from the mid-20th century (1940s-1960s). The glass appears thick and durable, typical of Depression-era and mid-century mass-produced glassware. The condition appears to be excellent with no visible chips or cracks along the delicate scalloped rim, though fine surface scratches consistent with age and use may be present upon closer inspection. The color is consistent throughout, showing the classic ruby hue when light passes through it. There are no maker's marks visible in the image, as many of these pieces were originally identified by paper labels.
