This is a lovely vintage lidded bowl which has been made in Karlsbad, Czechoslovakia by Moser Glass.
It is a fine old piece dating to the early 20th century.
It has an etched signature on the base, as photographed.
The bowl is made of a lovely rich purple or amethyst glass - and this is especially attractive when inset with the gold-tone metal frieze around the main body section - and on the lid around the edge and also forming a decorative circle in the central space.
The frieze features a battle between Centaurs and Greek Warriors.
These lidded trinket boxes are now very collectible and harder-to-find items by Moser.
The banding around the lid is more decorative - again as photographed.
The little bowl is about 3 1/2 inches in height and just under 5 1/2 inches in diameter.
There are four applied glass ball feet on the base - these are undamaged and secure with no wobble or issues.
The dish is in good antique condition with no chips or cracks - and the metalwork is generally without issue. I have personally owned this piece for many years and I have taken great care of it.
