This clear glass bowl, produced by the Cristalleries de Saint-Louis in France between 1835 and 1850, is a prime example of 19th-century French glassmaking. The bowl is decorated with an intricate, repeating pattern of fan-like shapes and floral motifs, creating a delicate and elegant visual effect. The intricate details and high-quality craftsmanship of this piece demonstrate the artistry and skill of the Saint-Louis glassworks, which were renowned for their exquisite and refined glassware. This bowl is now part of the Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection.
