This is a picture of the punch bowl my father gave to my mother on their wedding day in 1913. It is by Norwood and has the circle with the N inside it. It appears to be aqua-opal in coloration. It has one point missing and a smooth crack in the base that it stands on. There are no cups with it. I have not had it appraised but I think it has some value. Any interest or comments would be appreciated. The bottom of the bowl and the top of the base are both the same shade of blue. The design
of the bowl is 'Peacock at the Fountain'. My email is nlhaire@gmail.com

it is Peacock at the Fountain by Northwood & Co., ca.1910. You can check on some of the price trending at Doty:

What a gorgeous bowl!
Normally damage as extensive as this would make the item undesirable, but a piece of Peacock at Fountain in aqua opalescent will still have substantial value, even with this kind of damage.
Is the color of the base glass on the bowl blue like it is on the stand? Hard to tell in the photos.
The bottom of the Peacock at Fountain in aqua opalescent bowl and base are the same shade of blue.
So unique and beautiful. This piece represents the love of two people on their wedding day so the slight damage doesn't take away value.
