A striking antique Bohemian art glass bowl, richly decorated with extensive hand-applied gilt floral ornament and deep ruby-red enamel bands. The bowl features a graceful scalloped rim heavily accented in gold, with four sweeping ruby panels radiating from a central gilt medallion to create an elegant pinwheel effect.

Each ruby band is elaborately embellished with gold flowers, leaves and fern-like foliage, while additional delicate gilt botanical sprays fill the clear glass sections.
