This lot comprises two pieces of decorative art glass. The first is a shallow studio glass bowl featuring an undulating frilled rim and a vibrant blue and green colour palette. The design consists of a blue central ground decorated with semi-opaque pale blue circular controlled bubble motifs, transitioning into a densely speckled green border. This piece is hand-blown with applied frit and internal decoration, featuring a polished pontil and faint, illegible incised marks to the base. The second item is a small decorative glass basket in a translucent amber tone. The body is formed with deep pinched ruffles, creating a star-like profile, surmounted by two handles that meet at the apex. The base is finished with a moulded waffle-patterned grid. Dimensions (measured from visible ruler): Bowl: Diameter approx. 14.2 cm, Height approx. 4.4 cm Basket: Width approx. 8.1 cm, Height approx. 7.6 cm. Condition: Both items appear in good condition with no visible chips, cracks, or restoration. Minor shelf wear to the bases is consistent with age and use.
