Antique Enameled Opaline Glass Centerpiece Bowl and Plate, 19th Century

About the Item

This exceptional two-piece serving set, consisting of a tazza bowl and its matching plate or saucer, is crafted from milky white opaline glass and dates to circa 1850. Made by Bohemian glassmakers of the mid-19th century, the set exemplifies the extraordinary craftsmanship and artistic refinement for which Bohemian glass was celebrated. The bowl's circular body stands elegantly on a circular base and is richly hand-painted with intricate gold and enamel designs. A continuous scene of gilded scrollwork is complemented by vibrant, colorful bouquets. The base of the bowl is further adorned with a painted border of green leaves. The matching underplate or saucer mirrors the bowl’s luxurious decoration, featuring similar enamel and gold designs. The rim is cut and gilded, enhancing the overall sense of elegance and sophistication. This centerpiece is a stunning example of the high quality and artistic excellence that defined Bohemian glassworks in the mid-19th century, showcasing their mastery in combining decorative artistry with functional forms.
