Antique Bohemian Crystal Cup

Beautiful cut bohemian crystal bowl. In diamond-cut crystal on a ruby red background, it is a very beautiful decorative piece with pretty patterns reminiscent of the art deco style. It can be used as a fruit bowl in the center of the table, as a pocket emptier, as a salad bowl... It is very elegant and will adorn your table with a touch of prestige. In excellent condition with no signs of wear or shock. Bohemian crystal owes its name to bohemia, a historic region of the czech republic where it has been made for over eight centuries. It is a glass containing 24% lead. It is the lead that gives this beautiful iridescence and brilliance that contribute to its worldwide success. If you observe the size of bohemian crystal with a magnifying glass, you will notice some slight "imperfections". This is because the cut cannot be uniform. Indeed, it is made by hand using exceptional know-how. All these characteristics make bohemian crystal one of the most appreciated materials by lovers of refinement.
