About the Item
An English exhibition-quality glass and enamel vase, circa 1860.
This highly decorative, large exhibition-quality enamelled glass vase is a superb example.
The vase is made from pale grey glass with a pinkish tint and stands on a flared foot with a short stepped stem. The body is baluster-shaped and balanced with a narrow neck which flares out to the rim.
The vase is exquisitely decorated with a naturalistic scene featuring a nicely detailed chiffchaff bird dropping down, most likely to a hidden nest in the undergrowth, surrounded by bright flowers and foliage.
The decoration is extensive, unlike most examples, which tend to have a small front and perhaps a back panel. This is almost continually circulating all around the vase.
The enamelling is beautifully hand-painted in bright translucent colours with thick solid highlights, which would have created a lot of work for the artist, as each colour of glass enamel has to be fired separately.
The vase is finished at the top and bottom with a gilt and black-lined border, centred with a string of white enamel beading.
The vase is in excellent original condition with no wear, damage or restoration.
English, circa 1860
