Olive Glass Lidded Compote with Teardrop Finial

Hand-blown olive glass lidded compote with a clear glass stem and teardrop finial, ideal as a decorative candy dish or table accent.

Description

Blown glass compote in an olive-green hue rises on a clear glass stem to a wide, shallow bowl, topped with a matching lid that tapers up to a teardrop-shaped finial and rounded knob. Designed as a decorative candy dish or covered compote, the piece would have served on a sideboard or vanity to hold sweets, potpourri, or small trinkets while doubling as a striking table accent.

The form combines a flared, saucer-like bowl with a sculptural clear glass baluster stem featuring a ribbed knop, all resting on a wide olive glass foot for stability. No maker’s mark or label is visible on the piece, and the coloring and hand-blown construction are consistent with mid-century European glasswork. The lid fits snugly over the bowl’s rim, with the pointed finial echoing the curve of the stem below.

The glass is in clean, sound condition overall, with only minor bubbles and imperfections typical of hand-blown glass visible under close inspection. No chips, cracks, or cloudiness are present on the bowl, lid, or base, and the surfaces retain good gloss and clarity throughout.
