Who can ever have enough glass bowls? (Not me.)
On a weekend Goodwill run to look for toddler dollhouse figures, a very pretty cut glass bowl zoomed right into my path of vision.
It's zig zag edges appealed to me as well as the unique design patterns.
I could picture sparkling deep red cranberry sauce in it or whipped cream for strawberry shortcake.

Its elegance was reminiscent of elegant Victorian times.
As a little voice in my mind argued that I didn't "need" another cut glass bowl, my hand was lifting the bowl off the shelf and placing it in my shopping cart!
It cost $4 and I thought that was a steal.
Loved washing the little bowl in sudsy hot water with vinegar added to it.
It shines. It sparkles. It's a beauty.

I do love cut glass and this little pretty is lovely and great price.
At my place glass objects were in fashion in the past now young people don't use it.
Susan,
Very pretty!! I have several of these myself!!
Hugs,
Debbie
Very pretty, Susan! We received several of these as wedding gifts 40+ years ago. My entertaining is so very casual that these don't see enough light of day! :)
I have a collection of small ones I use at Christmas. Yours is pretty.
I love cut glass bowls and vases. My favorite bowl is one I inherited from my grandmother. She always used it for applesauce, so I do too - and other things. I have a pretty cut glass vase that my dad gave me - it has pink silk roses in it that I bought on sale at Michaels the other day.
Love cut glass also; yours is a "steal" for sure. I'm sure it will grace many a lovely table setting and more at your home.
I have several cut glass candy dishes that I use a lot, for many things other than candy; also a pickle/relish dish that belonged to my mother that never fails to bring a bittersweet smile to my face as I see her placing the dish on the Thanksgiving or Christmas table....
I love cut glass and this bowl is so pretty! I love the sparkle of glass and putting pretty food in them is a joy.
hugs, Linda
Isn't it fun to find a great deal like that. And what a beautiful bowl!
Your glass is lovely. I never had much glass but a friend gave me glass coasters for my table. Lately I picked up lead crystal napkins rings for a song. I might be leaning the direction of glass. Ha!
Hello from Spain: I have many glass bowls and trays. I received many gifts in my wedding. . Keep in touch
Nothing around here stays sparkly for long. I had a pretty yellow ware bowl that I bought at the Friday market but hubby knocked it off the counter recently and it is no more. :( Have a wonderful day. Tammy
If something is shiny and sparkly, you need it!♡
Just broke one of my cut glass candy bowls yesterday as I was in a hurry dusting. Oh well. I have a few more. I like your new bowl. I'm sure you will find many good uses for it.
Love finds like this! It is a beautiful bowl. I am sure you will enjoy using it for years to come. :)
Have a great week,
Karen

I think that cut glass bowl was beautiful. And I know that you can certainly decorate it to be beautiful! But glass bowls is one thing I don't collect. Just never have.
Love, sandie
What a great deal! I can just imagine this pretty bowl full of watermelon, cantaloupe, strawberries and blueberries!
