This comport is absolutely stunning! Made in Italy in the 1950s, it is cobalt blue glass with beveled edges under both the bowl and the foot. It retains a "Made in Italy" sticker. It is signed by the artist.<p>

Cobalt blue glass is made by adding cobalt oxide, a silver-white metal, to the glassmaking process. This adds to its value.<p>

The comport is footed with a segmented stem, which indicates to me that it is molded blown glass. The stem is 1 3/4 inches tall and is 1 5/8 inches thick. The foot is 2 3/4 inches across. The bowl is 1 3/4 inches high and 4 1/2 inches across the top. The artist's signature, Loceli, is etched on the bottom of the foot. The glass has a fine, silken finish.<p>
