It is pressed glass, not cut. The pattern is J.B. Higbee's Fortuna. If you look closely in the center of the inside, you may find the company's trademark of a bee with the letters H I G over its wings and body.
I have two of these, use them for camelias and other flat flowers and we call them camelia bowls here in the south... a beautiful old piece (older aunts gave me mine).
Most people call this a rosebowl, but this bowl is labeled "Nut Bowl" in a J.B. Higbee catalog.
