Couldn't load pickup availability
A striking vintage lidded candy dish or bonbonniere, crafted from vibrant red glass. This eye-catching piece features a textured pattern of overlapping petals or teardrops on both the dish and lid, with attractive scalloped edges. It stands on a small pedestal foot and is topped with a glass finial.
A key characteristic is its unique surface finish: the red colour has a mottled, distressed, or 'mercury glass' like effect in patches, giving it an intriguing aged patina and sparkle.
Condition: Structurally sound with no obvious chips or cracks. The red finish is significantly mottled/distressed, which defines its current aesthetic – please see photos carefully. This could be an intentional finish or wear over time.
