A late 19th century French classical Grecian style glass vase circa 1880

About the Item

This most elegant and pleasing classical Grecian style glass vase was made in France, circa 1880 and was inspired by ancient Greece. It has a tall baluster form stands on a small flared foot and is well balanced with a tall flared neck and plain rim. The vase is made from opaque white glass separated with pale blue overlaid panels with hand painted Greek key boarders. The central section is most striking and bears a classical Grecian soldier in full uniform with spear and shield riding an elaborate chariot which is being drawn by two powerful horses. This printed and hand gilded decoration is very detailed and the gilt elements catch the light and glisten beautifully. The reverse of the vase is plain apart from a small hand painted classical motif. This hand blown vase is finished on the underside with a snapped off pontil from its manufacture.

Zoomorphic Partridge Ewer Blue French Glass Late 19th century

By Portieux Vallerysthal

Located in Paris, FR

Original zoomorphic pitcher ewer in the shape of a partridge. Beautiful item made of silver plate for the head of the partridge nicely chiseled showing the lovely texture of feathers and blown blue glass for the body part, with a handle on the back. Yellow-colored glass eyes. The Head of the partridge is mounted on a hinge forming a movable lid for the pitcher-ewer. This kind of pitcher ewer was mainly used to serve delicious alcohol or liquor with flavor and aroma, such as pear, and mirabelle plum, as it was during the "Belle Epoque" a very fashionable and refined custom. This colored blown glass was produced by the Portieux Crystal factory created in 1705, it has a written mark "Deposé" beneath the body of the ewer, french work from the late 19th century, probably from Napoleon III period. The history of this factory known as the "Portieux crystal factory" actually begins in Tonnoy in 1690. In 1698, Duke Leopold I of Lorraine granted letters patent to Sieur de la Pommeraye, owner of the premises, associated with François Magnien, holder of the know-how, the exclusivity of glass manufacturing and trade in his duchy. In 1898, the Grand Duchess of Vladimir, wife of the brother of Tsar Nicolas II, discovered the factory while on a cure in Contrexéville. She will become a frequent customer. in 1960, the company supplies many prestigious customers: Maxim's, Brasserie Lipp, Hôtel de Crillon, Le Bristol...
