Cristal Benito, Silver Circle Vas, Handcut Enameled Crystal Vase, France, 2021

About the Item

This enameled and silvered glass crystal vase, featuring a playful arrangement of overlapping circles, exemplifies Martin Benito's mastery of a craft honed by his family for generations in France. Benito begins his process by tracing the lines of his designs onto uncut forms. These are then milled by hand, and the rough cut refined—the patterns channeled deeper and deeper, to the very breaking point of the crystal. The most brilliant sheen is brought forth with increasingly fine polishing wheels. Once the cut is finished, pieces are often polished with yet another wheel or in an acid bath, and colored, whilst hot, with pigments.

  • Signed Osler Epergne Silver Bronze Centerpiece w/ Winged Griffins Crystal Vases
    By F. & C. Osler
    Located in Great Barrington, MA
    This is a rare and spectacular example of F. & C. Osler's workmanship. The Osler firm was founded in Birmingham, England, in 1807. Thomas Osler and a partner produced small ornaments, followed by glass prisms and parts for chandeliers. In 1831, Osler's sons, Follett and Clarkson, assumed control of the business, which was eventually reorganized as F. & C. Osler. They moved to new premises in Birmingham, and in 1852 they opened their own glass factory so that they no longer had to rely on others for their glass. A perfect round and low centerpiece this will be the focal point of any table setting. The plateau base is engraved with a star cutting creating a bright eye-catching center. Ready for your favorite flowers in the removeable, easy to clear trumpet vases.
