Hofbauer Byrdes Heart Shaped Dish. Circa 1990. Clear glass heart shaped dish with bird design. Measures 1 3/4" in height by 8 3/4" wide. Excellent condition.
This exquisite heart-shaped dish belongs to the collectible "The Byrdes" line by Hofbauer, a company celebrated for its high-quality 24% lead crystal until production ceased in the early 1990s. The dish features a sophisticated design with two birds etched into the base, encircled by a series of raised frosted hearts and intricate geometric diamond-cut patterns that catch the light with brilliant clarity.
Measuring 8.75 inches in width and 1.75 inches in height, this substantial piece serves beautifully as a candy dish, vanity trinket holder, or a romantic centerpiece. Hofbauer crystal is distinguished by its heavy weight and traditional Bavarian motifs, making this "Made in West Germany" piece a timeless addition for collectors of fine art glass or those looking for a unique anniversary or Valentine's Day gift. Its sawtooth edges and clear crystal brilliance reflect the high standards of 20th-century German glassmaking.
This item is vintage, approximately 35 years old. While the item appears to be in excellent condition, there is the possibility I may have missed a minor detail. In the unlikely event I missed a major flaw I would reach out prior to sending it.
