Large Loetz Czech Bohemian Iridescent Glass Bowl W/ Brass Art Nouveau Handle

Description

This auction is for a beautiful vintage absolutely wonderful large iridescent predominately green Czech Bohemian (most likely Loetz) Glass bowl with metal vintage art nouveau brass holder/basket as shown in the pictures taken with and without flash. The glass bowl itself is in very nice condition for its age, with no chips, cracks, hairlines or repairs. It does not appear to be marked and has exquisite green and purple iridescent coloring. The large art nouveau floral decorated holder or basket appears to be original and must have come with the glass bowl. It is in nice condition for its age but does show wear and discoloration in places which you may see in the pictures. We believe the metal is Brass as no magnets adhere anywhere to it and its Gold metal coloring. The floral art design of the basket is just magnificent itself. This piece is large and heavy and I do not dare remove the glass bowl from the metal basket portion. The bowl itself measures about 12 inches across by around 7 1/4 inches widest. The height of the glass bowl is around 4 inches tall. These are approximations. The brass floral basket/holder measures just over 12 1/4 inches tall to height of holder center at top. It is approximately just over 12 1/2 inches long by around 7 inches widest. These are also approximations. This piece of art glass and metal would look wonderful in anyone’s art nouveau glass or metal collection. Please review all pictures carefully as they constitute part of the description.
