About the Item
This antique hand-blown ruby and transparent glass hookah base, crafted by 19th-century Bohemian glassmakers for the Persian or Ottoman market, exemplifies the height of luxury and artistic refinement in glassmaking.
The circular body is hand-painted with rich gilt enamel decoration, incorporating foliate patterns, delicate scrollwork, and vibrant depictions of flowers and leaves. The gilded enamel border at the base further enhances its ornate appearance, highlighting the attention to detail and the quality of the craftsmanship.
Designed for the Persian and Ottoman markets, this hookah base reflects the cultural fusion of European glassmaking techniques with the ornate and decorative tastes of the Islamic world. The combination of ruby glass, intricate enameling, and lavish gilding makes this piece a fine example of Bohemian artistry from the 19th century, valued for its beauty and historical significance.
