Bride's baskets or bride's bowls are usually one-of-a-kind novelties made in American and European glass factories. They were made in almost every color of art glass and most have silver-plated holders with handles. They were especially popular about 1880 when the decorated basket was often given as a wedding gift. Cut glass baskets were popular after 1890. All bride's baskets lost favor about 1905. Bride's baskets and bride's bowls may also be found in other glass sections. For more information, explore our bride's basket and art glass identification guides.
