Green Pressed Glass Decorative Bowl

The item is a circular glass bowl, exhibiting a distinct olive green or forest green hue. Its material appears to be pressed glass, characteristic of manufacturing techniques often employed during the mid-20th century. The bowl features a decorative band around its rim, consisting of a series of large, arched or scalloped impressions, creating a repeating pattern. Below this, the main body of the bowl is smooth until it reaches the lower portion, which is adorned with vertical ribbed or fluted detailing, adding texture and visual interest. The base of the bowl is flat and appears to have a slightly raised rim or a subtle hobnail-like texture on its underside, designed to provide stability. From the image, the bowl appears to be in good overall condition, with no immediate visible chips, cracks, or significant wear. There might be some minor surface dust or reflections, but no major condition issues are apparent. The craftsmanship indicates a mass-produced item, yet with attention to decorative detail, consistent with common household glassware from earlier decades, possibly from the mid-century modern era (1940s-1960s). Its size cannot be precisely determined without comparative objects, but it seems to be a medium-sized serving or fruit bowl, suitable for a table centerpiece.
