Imperial Acanthus Purple Bowl
Description
We went to Boonville, Missouri, home of auctioneer Mickey Reichel, who was having his annual Extravaganza auction. He does this the first week of January every year. It was 2011 and we were looking forward to the auction. Mickey had some great glass and this piece was one of them. It's an Imperial "Acanthus" purple deep round bowl.
The iridescence is great on this example, as you can see. The pattern is perfect for iridescence. This piece reminds me of a couple different things. How about a satellite view of a hurricane or water going down the drain. Ok then.....what does it remind you of?
