Antique Hawkes Cut Glass & Sterling Silver Hallmarked Art Nouveau Bowl

Description

Exquisite Art Nouveau Hawkes heavy cut glass with solid Sterling Silver rim with handles round bowl . The bowl measures approximately 6” across the middle & approximately 8” across from handle too handle. It’s approximately 4” tall. The glass & the Sterling Silver rim all have a sort of “v” pattern with lines. The way the glass is cut & the thickness of it plus the heaviness of it and the Sterling Silver rim lead me to believe it might even be earlier than the Art Nouveau era & some Victorian revival piece. The rim with handles is not a thin  foil Silver one but rather a thick solid one which is probably why the bowl stayed in one pice with no chips or dings. The glass does have some milkiness around the bottom as old cut glass gets with age . Please see all the pictures before bidding and ask any questions you have. A rare antique item sold as is as pictured with no returns.
