Rosenthal Studio-Linie Tulip Form Crystal Fruit/Candy Pedestal Bowl

This is a pedestal-style glass bowl characterized by a distinctive 'tulip' or floral petal design. Likely mid-to-late 20th-century vintage (circa 1970s-1990s), this piece features a high-quality glass or crystal body with a multi-textured finish. The bowl is composed of vertical, overlapping petal shapes that create a scalloped rim. Each petal alternates between a polished clear finish and a frosted/acid-etched finish, which adds visual depth and a sense of movement to the piece. The bowl sits atop a thick, faceted stem that flares out into a six-lobed clover-shaped base, providing stability and complementary geometric detail. The construction appears to be molded glass with secondary hand-finishing for the frosted sections. In terms of condition, the glass retains excellent clarity with no visible chipping or deep cracks, through minor surface scratches (shelf wear) may be present on the underside of the base. This design is highly characteristic of the Rosenthal Studio-Linie, which often collaborated with international designers to create sculptural glassware. The thickness of the glass suggests durability, while the frosted contrast highlights the delicate petal contours, making it a functional piece of art glass.
