@Enufstuff    Your items are beautiful!  I have a crystal bowl like that with the scalloped edge.  Found it here in my dads house and use it for fruit.  As much as I donated, I can't seem to part with this.  So many pretty things.  Thanks for sharing.

@Enufstuff  Your decor is lovely.

I think I've mentioned that my family had owned home decorative accessories/gifts stores. I love so much of what we sold.

 

We sold Pilgrim Glass (cranberry), Westmoreland Glass, Fenton Glass, Mt. St. Helen's Glass, Bohemian Art Glass from Czechoslovakia, Mary Gregory Glass, Kosta Boda art pieces, & more. In crystal, we carried items from Germany, Ireland, Italy, Poland, & more. Some crystal labels included Violetta, Ebeling & Reuss, Gorham, Waterford, Swarovski, & many more.

 

It appears that your bowl has the "pinwheel" pattern with the star-like cutting. Pinwheel was one of my favorites, & I still have a couple pieces. I also liked a rose pattern and have a rose bowl with that pattern - among other pieces in various patterns Lol.

It seems we share an admiration for beautiful crystal.

 

Our stores were filled with crystal bowls, compotes, drinkware, carafes, bells, vases, candle holders, boxes, biscuit jars, candelabras, baskets, mantel lusters, decanters, serving pieces, etc. Some pieces were in colors like blue, green, or red. We were importing crystal from Poland before "that wall" came down.

We also carried tabletop & had bridal registry.

 

Other categories like music boxes, figurines, wall art, European brocades, mirrors, light fixtures, small Italian furniture pieces, seasonal, and on & on filled our stores.

 

I cherish the years I worked as a Buyer & catalog creator in my family's stores, and I still treasure the beautiful items we carried.

Enjoy your precious decor.
