The item is a vintage Fire-King Peach Lustre handled bowl. These bowls were produced by Anchor Hocking in the mid-20th century, primarily during the 1950s and 1960s.
The bowl is made from heatproof milk glass with an iridescent fired-on exterior finish. It features the popular "Peach Luster" or "Peach Lustre" finish, which has an iridescent, mirror-like sheen on the outside, and a milky white interior. The exterior features a ribbed or lined pattern, often referred to by collectors as the "Beehive" pattern. It has a single, curved handle on one side.
These bowls were marketed as "Oven Ware" and are oven-safe, making them suitable for serving individual portions of soups, chili, stews, or casseroles. They are popular items among collectors of retro and mid-century kitchenware.
This medium sized bowl is in mint condition.
