Hand-Blown Cased Glass Ruffled Bowl With Applied Pink Ribbon

Art glass, particularly pieces featuring applied elements and cased glass techniques, gained popularity in the late 19th and early to mid-20th centuries. This particular style, with its ruffled rim and applied ribbon or bow-tie motif, is reminiscent of decorative glass popular in the mid-century. The use of cased glass, where one layer of glass is blown over another, allowed for contrasting colors and effects, while applied elements added further decorative flair.
