Clear fish bowl from Fyens Glasswork
Item number: 532298
Description: Height 18 cm.
Diameter at opening 11 cm.
Beautiful clear fish bowl from the late 1800s.
It has some glass sicknes to it, but it is only visible under bright direct light.
The glass is in production from 1886 until 1954, when it is seen for the last time in the glassworks' catalogs. It is first seen in Kastrup Glasværk's catalog from 1886 and at the merger of Kastrup and Fyens Glasværk, it appears in their joint catalog until it is taken out of production.
The glass is made of clear glass and sea blue.
It is mouth blown with a fine optics, wavy edge that is cut off when hot and heated so that it is not sharp. The bottom is a snapped pontil from the glassmaker's rod, which shows that this is from before the year 1900.
The vase is in good condition.
