About the Item
Of all the glassworks produced in the late 19th century, cameo glass was the most challenging to perfect. Only a handful of artisans succeeded in mastering this intricate craft, with the firm of Thomas Webb
Sons standing out as the most accomplished. Webb’s cameo masterpieces surpassed those of their major French contemporaries in finesse and artistry, earning them a prestigious reputation in the world of fine glassmaking.
This intricately crafted scent bottle exemplifies Thomas Webb
Sons' unrivaled expertise. The slender red bottle is layered with soft white overlay that has been delicately hand-carved into beautiful bamboo shoots that wrap around the bottle. The silver-gilt mount and cover, marked Sampson Mordan
Co., London 1884, elegantly complement the overall design. This fine glass scent bottle would have held perfumes and essential oils within its intricately decorated body.
Circa 1884
