A Large Antique Bohemian Cobalt Blue and Clear Glass Bowl

19th century
Description

A superb large Bohemian cobalt blue over clear glass overlaid fruit bowl.

This bowl is of a larger size than normally seen. It has a wonderful rich vibrant blue colour which has been hand cut through to reveal the clear glass below. This fine work has been done in a grape and vine leaf pattern connected by trailing stems around the complete circumference.

The base of the bowl is clear with a fine star shaped design at its centre and the rim is highlighted with a half diamond facet cut boarder.

The bowl is in very good condition with no damage. The underside of the base shows some nice signs of age and use as expected with a 19th century bowl.

Bohemian, circa 1880

Height 10cm x width 24.5cm x 24.5cm

Dealers Notes

Robert Belcher Antiques was established in 1984 and is a high-quality retailer of interesting, rare antiques and decorative objects. After forty years of shop keeping and maintaining beautiful showrooms, which have been regularly open six days a week, Robert and Wendy have now taken a slightly different approach to their business. Having sold their retail premises, the antique business is now fully online. The picture framing service has ceased to operate because of moving online.

You can contact Robert and Wendy by email or telephone to discuss items from their extensive catalogue of attractive pieces and make purchases. Customers can rest assured that the long-established dealership is continuing to run in an exceedingly professional way, selling genuine and high-quality items which are guaranteed to please the most discerning collector, decorator or homeowner.

All items will be personally hand packaged to a high standard. Small items are extensively wrapped using the best materials and are often double boxed. Items are then shipped with DHL or Royal Mail fully insured and often with next day delivery. Larger items would be personally delivered or sent with a specialist antique delivery firm, or for outside the U.K, a professional shipping company.

Please enjoy viewing their collection of rare and interesting pieces and have the assurance that Robert and Wendy will do their utmost to make sure your experience is exceptional, as has been recognised by many customers who have bought with confidence regularly over the years.

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Bohemian cut-to-clear glass refers to a decorative glassmaking technique developed in Central Europe, where a layer of coloured glass is fused over a clear crystal base before being hand-cut or etched with precise pattern designs.

Cased glass is manufactured by fusing an outer casing of dark cobalt blue glass over a thick clear lead crystal body, after which artisans manually carve through the coloured layer to expose the clear glass underneath.

Authentic pieces feature crisp hand-cut detailing, polished wheel marks, distinct hand-finished edges or rim serrations, and noticeable weight due to high lead crystal content.

Position the bowl as a central focal piece on a dining table, sideboard, or illuminated shelf to allow light to penetrate the cutouts and cast coloured patterns across the surface.

Hand wash gently using lukewarm water and mild detergent with a microfibre cloth, avoiding hot water, dishwashers, and abrasive cleaners that can cause thermal shock or micro-scratches.
