Late 19th Century Antique Set of Four Acid Etched Glass Doors, Four Seasons

About the Item

Late 19th Century antique set of four acid etched glass doors the Four Seasons. Original salvaged from an estate in France, this is a amazing set of four bifold doors each with one of the four seasons. Each acid etched glass door shows a beautiful women dressed for each season. Winter is wearing ice skates and a warm jacket with a hood. Autumn or Fall is shown picking grapes, Spring is picking flowers and Summer barefoot carrying wheat. Acid etching or French embossing is a specialist, time-honoured technique developed in the mid 1800s. This skilled and labour-intensive process involves applying glass with a coating which is then etched with a decorative design and exposed to acid. This exposure corrodes the glass, creating variances of texture and tone. This results in a highly decorative and artistic finish that brings elegance and beauty to any setting.
