    I like the extravagance of it. It is smooth on top but the underneath of the white part is gritty giving it a textured look. The green rim looks pleated but then it rises and falls in dramatic swoops. It all sits on a base metal pedestal.

    It measures 15 cm/6 inches across the top. It may have been for bonbons (only a few) but more likely for visiting cards. It just took my fancy one day!

    If I've got its use wrong please tell me.

      This dish is in the Bohemian Overshot style of glass. Very nice, I have a basket which is similar.

      Hi Shawnl, how neat that it's in the Bohemian Overshot style of glass! It's displayed amongst Bohemian Art Nouveau glass although I've no idea of its origins :-)
