Guide to decorative Elegant and Depression

The bowl in the picture (at left) is from Fostoria Glass. It is the Baroque blank and has the Chintz etching. You can see that this bowl is flared and quite fancy. It looks like it belongs on a table as a centerpiece. This particular bowl is referred to as a 11 inch weigt flared bowl by 3 3/4" height. We have another Baroque bowl with the Lido etch that is about one inch narrower. Console bowls could be used to hold fruit or flowers, but were styled to have enough presence and size to look great empty as well.
