Art Deco Smoked Glass & Chrome Centerpiece Bowl - circa 1930

An elegant large Art Deco centerpiece bowl dating to circa 1930, combining richly smoked glass with a polished chromed-metal pedestal base. The wide, shallow glass bowl is decorated with a striking geometric relief pattern of repeating facets and triangular motifs, creating dramatic changes in depth and tone as the light moves across the surface. Its low architectural profile and stepped metal base give the piece a particularly refined Modernist character. Designed as a centerpiece or fruit bowl, it also works beautifully as a standalone decorative object. The combination of smoky glass, chrome and strong geometric ornament is characteristic of sophisticated European Art Deco design of the interwar period. height 11cm, 39cm diameter
