Art Deco Pink Depression Glass Bowl Gold Trim Ribbed Starburst

Art Deco Pink Depression Glass Bowl — Gold Trim, Ribbed Starburst

Depression glass has become one of the most warmly pursued categories in American mid-century collectibles — and the Manhattan ribbed pattern by Anchor Hocking, produced in the 1930s, is among its most architecturally satisfying expressions. This large pressed glass serving bowl, 40cm in diameter and 10cm deep, is rendered in the blush rose-pink characteristic of period depression glass production and finished with a gold trim edge that elevates the piece into the decorative register. The ribbed and starburst-centred design creates a rhythmic visual geometry wholly in keeping with the Art Deco formal language of the period, while the glossy pressed glass finish reflects light with appealing warmth. Weighing a substantial 3kg, this is a generous centrepiece or display bowl of real presence — an original American piece from the 1930s.
