Compote 1876 - 1885

"Compote" is a clear glass bowl on a pedestal stand created by the Bryce Brothers between 1876 and 1885. The stand features a fish-shaped design, while the bowl is decorated with a pattern of intersecting lines. The piece, now located in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, is an excellent example of pressed glass, a popular style of glassmaking in the late 19th century. The intricate patterns and delicate details of "Compote" showcase the artistry of the Bryce Brothers, who were renowned for their glassmaking skills.
