Antique Pressed Glass Covered Standing Bowl with Bird Etchings

Time to post something different instead of early wood and brass cameras and related photographica from my collection. We have some antique glass that has been passed down and I found time to photograph an example.

This is a standing bowl with cover made of pressed glass - possibly lead crystal. The design includes circular medallion-like areas in the cover and upper base in which an artist wheel-cut / etched birds.

It’s a nice looking piece that is 14” tall and 7½” wide. Otherwise there isn’t any background information or marks. We also have a matching, short covered bowl form (candy dish?) of this piece.

Thoughts about what this might be?

*****************

Wow ... it didn't take more than a minute or two for TallCakes to identify this. I did a search and learned it is a large candy jar with lid and that Hofbauer Crystal Co. of West Germany produced collectible lead crystal in the mid-to late 1900s.
