Know before you buy
This bowl is crafted from authentic jadeite glass, a signature opaque, light-green pressed glass that became iconic in American kitchens during the 1940s and 1950s.
While jadeite is durable, it is vintage glassware and not tempered like modern borosilicate glass. It is best to avoid extreme temperature changes, such as moving it directly from a freezer to a hot oven, and hand-washing is recommended to preserve the finish.
This specific piece is listed in excellent condition, meaning it is free of major chips, cracks, or deep scratches. As with most vintage glassware, you may find minor 'straw marks' or bubbles, which are common manufacturing characteristics of the era rather than damage.
Yes, the batter bowl is made of thick, pressed glass, which provides a substantial weight and a sturdy base. This makes it much more stable than lightweight plastic or thin metal bowls when you are whisking or stirring.
It is perfectly safe for serving warm foods like mashed potatoes or pasta. However, because it is vintage glass, avoid using it for high-heat cooking or placing it directly on a stovetop burner.
