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 collectable and harder to find items by Moser.
The banding around the lid is more decorative in nature - 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. More photographed can be supplied on request if you have serious interest.
I have personally owned this piece for many years and I have taken great care of it.
Probably an item for UK posting only. Postage quoted is for next day special delivery.
