This bowl has two small chips on its sawtooth edge (which is not unusual for glassware of this age) but is otherwise in excellent condition with no cracks or repairs.

Historical Significance:
This nappy bowl dates back to the early 20th century when berry dishes were redesigned to include handles, earning the name "nappy." Once used to serve grapes or olives, it is now perfect for candies, sauces, or as a decorative centerpiece. A charming addition to any antique or glassware collection!
