A lovely vintage French glass bonbon dish with lid (bonbonniere) which could be used to serve jam, sugar, boiled sweets, after dinner digestifs (mints), bonbons, sugar cubes, e.g., or even store jewelry. A lovely piece of glass to sparkle on a dresser.
This pretty bonbonniere really does sparkle in all directions due to its ridged lid and sides. Beautifully clear and undamaged, it is in a fabulous condition. Even the lid is ridged all round to give sparkle! The top rim of the dish is undulating and matches the undulations of the lid which slots in perfectly.
It measures 6 inches (15 cm) in height and has a maximum diameter of 2 1/2 inch (6.35 cm); weight is 346 grams.
Such a sweet little dish - it would enhance any tea table filled with sugar cubes, or a dining table filled with chocolate truffles or after dinner digestifs (mints, e.g.). It can also be used as a beautiful trinket box in which to store your jewelry items overnight. Display it on its own as a beautiful piece of glassware. A gorgeous gift for anyone to receive.
