About the Item

An exceptional example of early 19th-century English glass artistry, this Victorian decalomania vase was made in London and exemplifies the innovative decorative techniques of the period. The body is blown or molded glass, meticulously decorated using the decalomania process—transfers are applied to the interior surface, then fired or sealed so that the designs permanently adhere, creating a durable and visually striking effect. The vase features a classic urn shape with a narrow opening, resting on a round base. Its surface is adorned with intricately printed chinoiserie motifs, including birds, butterflies, flowers, foliate patterns, and Asiatic figures in period attire, reflecting the 19th-century European fascination with East Asian art and design. The carefully executed transfers highlight both the technical skill and the aesthetic sensibilities of early Victorian decorative glassmakers. Measuring approximately 14.5 inches high with a 7-inch diameter, this vase is in good antique condition, with expected minor loss of decoration from the interior surface, consistent with age and use. A rare and highly decorative example of Victorian decalomania glass, ideal for collectors of early 19th-century English glass or those seeking a statement piece rich in historical charm.
