glass vessel (comport)
This is part of a larger, but incomplete set. I'm thinking it might be American Brilliant, but there are no markings at all to ID the maker. Makes that sound that crystal does when struck. 5 inches tall, base is 3 across and bowl is 5 across.
Husband's grandparents, originally from Philadelphia area, settled in Washington DC.
Inherited
