Harry Hunt Royal Pattern American Brilliant Cut Glass Bowl 10 " X 5 " X 1/2 "
Item History & Price
On auction, we have an American Brilliant cut glass bowl by Harry Hunt. This is his Royal pattern, identified by my expert. My best description is its a hobstar design with tiny stars inside the larger ones and finely cut X's or crosses in between. The crosses also have stars in the centers. The base has raised hobstar feet with faceted edges. The cuts are sharp and deep, some 1/4" deep. The cuts appear to be precise, even on the bottom where the raised stars are just off... center to best balance the bowl. The glass has a nice clear ring when tapped. This bowl measures 10" wide, 5" tall, 1/2" thick and it weighs 5 pounds 7.5 ounces. This is in excellent condition for its age and possible use. There are worn spots, or maybe tiny chips on some sharp edges, especially on the bottom. The scalloped sawtooth rim also has a few. None of there are large or noticeable. I found them by feeling. I am not an expert on American Brilliant cut glass, so please view my photographs for more description. My friend who collects everything is organizing her fine crystal, china and porcelain. This bowl belonged to her Mother and was always treated with great care. I will be happy to answer any questions and, of course, combine your shipping. This will be carefully packed for you double boxed. Your shipping may cost a bit more, but you will receive it safely.
