Vintage French Frosted Satin Glass Pedestal Compote / Dessert Dish – Floral Embossed Pattern, "France 20" Etched Mark
Beautiful mid-century vintage French pressed glass pedestal compote (also perfect as a dessert bowl, bonbon dish, candy server, or small fruit bowl). This elegant piece features a soft satin/frosted finish that gives it a lovely diffused glow, with a raised (embossed/molded) floral motif encircling the bowl—stylized flowers, leaves, and foliage for a romantic, cottagecore vibe.
Key Details:
Maker/Origin: Likely Arcoroc or Luminarc (Arc International), classic French production from the 1960s–1980s era. Etched "France 20" mark on the base (common mold/batch code for these exported pieces).
Dimensions: Approximately 5" tall (height), 5" diameter at the rim/top, 3" diameter at the stable circular base.
Material & Finish: Translucent frosted/satin glass (not fully opaque milk glass), even satin texture with the floral design in subtle raised relief. Smooth slender stem/pedestal.
Condition: Good vintage condition—no chips, cracks, flea bites, or major scratches. Light expected wear from age/use (minor surface scuffs or utensil marks possible under close inspection, but nothing detracts from display or function). Clean and ready to use or display.
Style: Mid-century modern meets French farmhouse—great for everyday desserts (ice cream, pudding, fruit salad), candies, nuts, or as a charming centerpiece/decor accent on a vanity, shelf, or table.
This is a collectible piece of vintage French glassware—much nicer in person than photos show! Ideal for lovers of Depression-era style, satin glass, or French kitchenware. Pairs beautifully with other mid-century pieces or standalone.
