1904 NORTHWOOD “OCEAN SHELL” GLASS BOWL

This listing features a Northwood Glass Company opalescent blue glass pedestal whimsey in outstanding condition. If you collect beautiful glass or like decorating with beach and ocean themes, this piece is a no-brainer. Although Victorian, it's actually quite ageless and very interesting to study sculpturally.

Measuring approximately 5 inches tall by 6 1/2 inches wide with a 2 inch interior depth, it is mold-formed glass with a graduated opalescent rim reminiscent of a cresting wave. This wave or shell sits atop three coral-shaped legs and a center twisted stem that sprout from a round convex base. The bowl’s swirling and other textural patterns are on the exterior only with the interior having a smooth surface. The point of the wave has a bit of roughness but it's not distracting to my picky eye.
