About the Item

Fabulous large Fachschule Haida Enamel box and cover. Enamelled and gilded with stylised black dots and cute polychrome butterfly panels -This dates to around 1910. The Butterfly design and similar ones are well document and are featured in many books on Bohemian glass. We have never seen one as a box and cover before The Fachschule Haida was the workshop of the famous Haida glass school - to promote their skills and generate income the Professors at the school would create designs and the students would cut and enamel them -there was no factory - all the work was done and the pieces created by the Professors and their students -It was one of only three Bohemian glass schools; it was later renamed Nový Bor and still exists today

Victorian Bohemian Harrach Enamel Glass Potpurri Holder with Metal Fitments
By Harrach Glassworks
Located in Worcester Park, GB
Unusual enamelled and gilded Victorian Harrach Potpurri holder with original white metal feet and collar with detachable pierced lid and separate two part inner filter made c1890. With an opaque cream base, it is enamelled with green gilded bands and floral decoration. The container inner lid allows the contents to be closed off, partly closed off or left fully open, ensuring the fragrance is released into the room when only when desired. Harrach has been the backbone of Bohemian, and possibly European, glass for the last 300 years. It proudly celebrates its tri-centenary in 2012. Before Ludwig Moser was allowed to have his own Glassworks he, like almost everyone else in the region, bought his blanks from Harrach. In fact we will probably never know how much glass, supposedly made my other great glass makers of Europe, were in fact made and finished in the Harrach Glassworks. We do know that vast ranges of Legras was made by Harrach, probably under licence and possibly the majority of the glass we think of as Fratelli Tosso...
