This example displays the highly recognizable grape clusters, vine leaves, and cable-style border associated with the Grape \u0026amp; Cable pattern produced by the historic Imperial Glass Company. Pieces like this were pressed in molds and finished with a metallic spray treatment that created the shimmering rainbow effect collectors seek today.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe bowl has a beautifully shaped ruffled rim and excellent pattern definition throughout the grape clusters and leaves. When viewed in sunlight, the iridescent finish shows strong gold and blue highlights across the surface, a hallmark of early carnival glass production. Small berry bowls like this were originally used as serving dishes but today are widely collected and displayed for their unique color and historic glassmaking technique.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCondition is very good for its age with no visible chips or cracks. The glass retains strong iridescence and crisp pattern detail. Minor interior straw marks and mold lines are present, which are normal characteristics of early pressed carnival glass.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eApproximate size: about 5.5–6 inches across\u003cbr\u003eHeight: about 2 inches\u003cbr\u003eEra: circa 1908–1920\u003cbr\u003eMaker: Imperial Glass Company\u003cbr\u003ePattern: Grape \u0026amp; Cable\u003cbr\u003eMaterial: pressed carnival glass\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ecarnival glass, grape and cable bowl, imperial glass bowl, antique carnival glass dish, amethyst carnival glass, vintage pressed glass bowl, iridescent glass dish, grape pattern glass, early 1900s glassware, vintage berry bowl, collectible carnival glass, ruffled carnival glass bowl","brand":"LintHead Restorations","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51854726660386,"sku":null,"price":116.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0999\/6920\/4514\/files\/27f04f7a-4528-470e-8614-399f8df9d777_bc855803-ef44-45df-b874-2d12563858cb.jpg?v=1782352214","url":"https:\/\/lintheadrestorations.com\/products\/antique-imperial-carnival-glass-grape-cable-ruffled-bowl-amethyst-iridescent-pressed-glass-berry-dish-early-1900s-vintage-carnival-3","provider":"LintHead Restorations","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
