This Victorian art glass finger bowl dates from circa 1900 and represents the distinctive output of the period. Formed from light blue glass, the vessel displays a luminous opalescent finish that shifts in the light, alongside a translucent quality and horizontally ribbed texturing that encircles the entire body. The upper edge is shaped with a wide, crimped, ruffled, and pinched rim, creating an undulating profile with numerous folds. The piece measures 7 cm high, 12 cm wide, and 12 cm deep. Positioned on a sideboard top, this decorative bowl serves as a striking display item within a sunlit conservatory or dining room setting. The delicate hue, together with the tactile horizontal ribbing and the ornate fluted top edge, provides a refined visual texture. The compact proportions allow for versatile placement among other decorative items or as a standalone piece of glassware, bringing an authentic late 19th-century aesthetic to domestic interiors.

FAQs

Victorian opalescent art glass refers to decorative glassware produced during the late nineteenth century, characterised by milky or pearlescent translucency around the rims or edges. English glassworks, particularly in the Stourbridge region, excelled at creating these pieces using specialised chemical compositions and controlled reheating techniques.

Ribbed crimped glass was created by blowing molten glass into a ribbed mould to achieve surface texturing. The maker then manually manipulated the heated rim using hand tools to create uniform waves, ruffles, or crimped edges before annealing.

Authentic pieces from manufacturers like Stevens & Williams typically exhibit refined glass clarity, precise hand-crimped finishing, and polished pontil marks on the base. While many pieces were unsigned, specific colour gradations and pattern registrations match historical catalogue records.

An antique glass finger bowl can be placed on a window sill or sideboard top where natural light highlights its translucency. It also serves as an accent dish for small trinkets on a dressing table or console.

Hand wash antique glass in lukewarm water using a mild liquid detergent and a soft cloth. Avoid hot water, abrasive pads, and automatic dishwashers, as rapid temperature fluctuations can cause thermal shock and cracking.
