Cobalt Blue Pressed Glass Compote with Clear Pedestal Base

Decorative cobalt blue pressed glass compote featuring a flared bowl with vertical ribbing over a band of geometric block and star-cut patterning. The bowl is set on a clear glass pedestal stem and round foot, creating strong contrast between the deep cobalt upper section and the colorless base. The crisp molding and balanced proportions are characteristic of early-to-mid 20th-century pressed glass production, designed for both functional serving and decorative display.

This form was commonly used as a compote, candy dish, or centerpiece bowl. The saturated cobalt color enhances the cut pattern and makes the piece especially eye-catching when displayed with light or grouped among other cobalt glass.
