Description
Heavy Vintage Lead Crystal Low Bowl Set of Four
Beautiful heavy rock crystal bowls perfect for bar snacks and table service. The label reads “Stronie Slaskie Krystol” (only one bowl still retains its label). Stronie Slaskie is a region/town in Poland with a large quartz quarry. The Stronie Slaski glass factory was established in 1864 by Franz Losky of Germany on the property of Princess Marianna Oranska (in Stronie Slaskie) of Netherlands. During the 1900’s, the company was known as ‘Violetta’. The Violetta crystal glassworks went bankrupt and closed in 2008.
These lovely bowls were probably produced in the early 1900’s. The label points to early production. The high quality rock crystal was first mined from the region’s quarries, processed in the furnaces, then pressed, then hand-cut with additional decor and bevels. Fire-polished to stunning brilliance.
Set of four bowls, all in excellent condition. They weigh 1 lb each. Very heavy for bowls that measure 6″ round and 1 1/4″ tall.
