Comparable Sales
Similar unbranded textured glass bowls typically sell for $15-$25 on eBay and Mercari. Designer versions (like Blenko) sell for $60+, but this piece lacks the characteristic hallmarks of high-end art glass.
Description
This is a large, contemporary lime-green serving bowl made of heavy slumped glass. It features a wide rim and a distinct pebbled texture on the underside which catches the light beautifully. Measuring approximately 12-14 inches in diameter, it is ideal as a centerpiece fruit bowl or for serving salads. The 'spring green' color makes it a versatile piece for holiday hosting or everyday contemporary decor.
Key Features
Large scale, vibrant transparency, textured 'ice' or pebbled finish, heavy weight indicating quality, and a modern silhouette that fits 'mid-century modern' revival aesthetics.
Authenticity Indicators
Modern mass-market manufacturing. Lack of pontil mark (meaning it is mold-pressed/slumped rather than hand-blown) and standard thrift-store inventory markings suggest a contemporary brand like Pier 1, HomeGoods, or Libbey. Confidence: High.
Flaws to Note
Visible surface scratching on the bottom of the bowl and along the flat rim; Goodwill price sticker residue; general shelf wear. These are permanent but often less visible when the bowl is filled.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
Facebook Marketplace or Etsy (if marketed as 'Green Glass Decor'). Local pickup on Marketplace is preferred due to the weight and high shipping costs relative to the item's value.
Selling Tips
Thoroughly clean the glass to remove hard water spots. Use keywords like 'Textured Glass,' 'Spring Decor,' 'Centerpiece Bowl,' and 'Avocado Green.' Photograph against a white background with light passing through the glass to highlight the color.
