Turquoise Blue Ruffled Glass Compote Bowl

This item is a decorative compote bowl crafted from turquoise blue glass. It features a wide, shallow bowl with a dynamically ruffled or scalloped rim, giving it an organic and somewhat fluid appearance. The color is a vibrant, translucent turquoise, suggesting it might be art glass or a mid-century decorative piece. The bowl sits atop a substantial stem with a single, pronounced bulge or knop, tapering down to a round, stable base. The entire piece is made of a single continuous pour of glass, indicating good craftsmanship, likely either hand-blown or pressed glass. There are no visible chips, cracks, or significant abrasions on the surface, suggesting good to excellent overall condition. The glass appears clean and free of residue or cloudiness. The craftsmanship is evident in the smooth curves and uniform color throughout. Without a maker's mark or specific identifying features, it's challenging to pinpoint an exact production date or manufacturer, but its style is reminiscent of decorative glassware from the mid-20th century, possibly from the 1950s to 1970s. The size appears substantial enough to serve as a centerpiece or for holding fruits, candies, or other decorative items. There is an electrical cord shown in some proximity to it, but this is clearly a separate item and not part of the compote itself. The item demonstrates a pleasing aesthetic and solid construction for a glass decorative piece.
