The glass has the exceptional weight and clarity of fine American Brilliant Period lead crystal, circa 1880–1915.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe bowl is fitted with a magnificent \u003cstrong\u003eArt Nouveau pewter or white metal lid\u003c\/strong\u003e with a \u003cstrong\u003esculptural floral and leaf handle\u003c\/strong\u003e — a looping branch with fully three-dimensional lily or poppy blossoms and leaves that form the grip. The lid surface is decorated with \u003cstrong\u003eembossed flowing lily and leaf motifs\u003c\/strong\u003e in the sinuous Art Nouveau style, with a plain polished central reserve.
