Indonesian Pressed Pink Glass Bowls, Swirl Ribbed Sculptural Form
A visually striking pair of blush-toned glass bowls defined by dynamic spiral ribbing and softly scalloped rims. The translucent pink glass captures and refracts light with a warm, luminous glow, emphasizing the fluid, vortex-like movement of the form. Each bowl presents a low, wide silhouette that reads as both sculptural object and refined tabletop accent. The interplay of optical texture and subtle coloration gives these pieces strong decorative presence in both minimal and layered interiors.
Attribution & Period
Unmarked decorative arts example, marked “Indonesia” to the base. The construction, pressed glass technique, and decorative swirl motif are consistent with late 20th century Southeast Asian export glass production. The form and coloration align with mass-produced yet design-conscious decorative glassware of the 1980s–1990s, where molded ribbing and tinted glass were widely used to achieve visual depth and light interaction.
Dimensions & Weight
Height: 1.75 in
Width / Diameter: 4.75 in
Depth / Base Diameter: 2.25 in
Weight: 0.7 lbs (combined)
Condition
Excellent condition. No scratches, chips, or cracks observed. Clean surfaces with minimal to no base wear. Typical minor internal bubbles consistent with pressed glass manufacturing.
Authenticity & Construction
Pressed glass construction, formed in molds to create the continuous spiral ribbing and scalloped rim. This method allows for uniformity across both pieces while producing a pronounced optical effect. The tinted glass is integral to the material rather than applied, ensuring durability of color and finish.
Placement
Ideal as a paired accent on a cocktail table, console, or open shelving. Works effectively in modern, postmodern, or eclectic interiors, particularly where light interaction and reflective surfaces are emphasized. Also suitable as small serving vessels or decorative catchalls.
STANDARD ATTRIBUTION & VALUE DISCLOSURE
This piece is described to the best of current scholarly and market knowledge. Any maker or regional attribution is based on visual analysis, materials, construction techniques, and documented stylistic comparisons. As with many MCM and antique design objects, definitive attribution may not be possible without original labels or factory records. Pricing reflects condition, quality, decorative appeal, and current collector demand rather than guaranteed maker identification.
