About the Item
This elegant salad bowl or decorative centerpiece is a fine example of traditional Biot glass, handblown in the south of France using time-honored techniques. Characteristic of Biot production, the glass displays countless small air bubbles suspended within the material, a deliberate and celebrated feature that highlights its artisanal origin and gives each piece a unique, living texture.
The bowl is crafted in a soft, luminous green tone, subtly shaded with lighter and deeper variations that catch the light beautifully. Its generously scalloped, undulating rim creates a fluid, organic silhouette, while the raised pedestal foot provides both stability and visual balance. The form is sculptural yet functional, making it equally suitable as a fruit bowl, salad bowl, or purely decorative object for a dining table, console, or sideboard.
The thickness of the glass and the visible pontil mark underneath further attest to its handblown manufacture. Timeless and versatile, this Biot glass bowl brings warmth, craftsmanship, and Provençal authenticity to both classic and contemporary interiors. A refined example of French artisanal glassmaking, it is as decorative as it is practical, and no two pieces are ever exactly alike.
