About the Item

A monumental pair of antique 19th century Moser ruby-red overlay two-piece jeweled and 24-karat two toned, burnished and matte gold vases. Each of these vases are fabulously handcrafted with exquisite detail. Finely applied jewels and colored cabochons decorate each from top to bottom. They are further adorned with 24k matte and burnished gold decoration, bringing another level of excellence to these magnificent pieces. Each vase was made separately in 2 pieces, because in the 1800s, glass of this size could not be fired and blown in one individual section; to compensate for this, the master glaffer would fire two individual sections and combine them into one magnificent piece. This sectionalized design was not only necessary, but functional as well. The lower portion of the vases was used as a secret storage compartment because people would not know that these could come apart. Austria, circa 1890.

Magnificent Pair of Russian Imperial Ruby Glass Vases w/ Gilded Bronze Mounts
Located in New York, NY
While Napoleon's armies never conquered Russian, French taste did, and in a big way. This pair made at the Imperial Glass Workshop, under the Sponsorship of the Imperial Family would have been at home in a Paris drawing room as easily as in St. Petersburg. The Intense Ruby Red color of the Crystal is created by adding large quantities of gold to the molten glass before the object is created. The resulting color is dense yet full of light just like its namesake the precious jewel. The Dore bronze mounts use motifs taken from antiquity. Likewise, the shape of the handles is inspired by Greco-Roman amphora...
