Coloured Glass: Cobalt Blue Heart Shaped Console Bowl

Vintage mid-century modern cobalt blue glass swoop centrepiece console bowl — Scandinavian or Italian, 1960s–1970s.

A heavy, unsigned art glass piece featuring an elegant asymmetrical winged boat rim that tapers into a dramatic conical funnel base. The thick-gauge cobalt glass shifts from a dense near-black inky core at the foot to a brilliant glowing royal blue along the smoothly rolled edges — handling ambient light beautifully.

A stunning standalone table centrepiece, fruit dish, or eye-catching addition to a retro bar cart or sunlit shelf. Saturated vintage cobalt glass remains one of the fastest-selling colourways in the collector community.

Did you Know?

The swooped asymmetrical console bowl silhouette was a defining form of mid-century modern glass design, popularised by Scandinavian studios like Hadeland (Norway) and Holmegaard (Denmark) as well as Italian houses in Murano and Empoli during the 1960s. Because these pieces were often sold through department stores with only removable paper labels, many unsigned examples circulate without confirmed attribution today. The cobalt blue colourway — achieved by adding cobalt oxide during the melt — is among the most prized in vintage glass collecting for its depth and intensity under natural light.
