Hobnail Footed Ruffled Glass Centerpiece Bowl

This is a clear glass centerpiece bowl, featuring a footed design with a circular base and a short pedestal stem. The bowl itself has a ruffled, undulating rim, giving it a slightly organic or floral appearance. The entire outer surface of the bowl, including the pedestal, is covered in a raised, rounded, knob-like pattern, commonly known as "hobnail" glass. The hobnail pattern is dense, with individual knobs evenly spaced across the surface, creating a tactile and visually textured effect. The glass appears to be clear and relatively thick. There are no visible chips, cracks, or obvious repairs. The surface shows some light surface scratches and scuffing on the base consistent with age and use. There is a small paper tag present on the stem, which may contain manufacturing or retail information, although the text is not legible in the image. The craftsmanship appears decent, with the hobnail pattern consistently applied, though some minor variations in knob size or spacing may be present upon closer inspection. Based on the style and hobnail pattern, this piece likely dates to the late 19th or early 20th century, a period when this type of pressed glass was popular.
