Uranium Harrach Mat-Su-Noke Rose Bowl Bohemian Art Glass Aesthetic Period

About the Item

An Aesthetic period uranium art glass rose bowl with applied mat-su-no-ke decoration made by Harrachov Glassworks (Bohemian, Est. 1712), c. 1860-95. Following the Japanese inspired design precepts of the day a single swept branch of blossoms and leaves is carefully laid across the simplified fleshy body. For many decades there has been much confusion surrounding certain Victorian/Edwardian era art glass. Recent scholarship has re-attributed many objects thought to be by Stevens & Williams, Stourbridge, to Harrachov Glassworks, Bohemia. These previous attributions weren't made lightly by amateurs but by established bodies within the art world with firsthand knowledge of pattern books and designers. During the 19th and early 20th Century the Japanese Aesthetic was in vogue and this technique, itself often found with variable spelling across the most official sources (mat-su-noke / matsu-noke), was utilized by a wide variety of glasshouses. Retailers also imported and sold glass from other glasshouses leading to an increase in confusion of who made what. The Bohemian glass "craze" of the 21st Century has helped such attributions settle into firmer territory, the cross-border dialogue and influx of evidence has settled this style towards the Harrachov Glassworks, Bohemia. Every bit a quality piece of art glass.

Bohemian Art Nouveau Harrach Orange to Clear Cameo Glass Vase, 1900
By Harrach Glassworks
Located in Worcester Park, GB
A vibrant Art Nouveau orange/pink over clear Harrach cameo vase. Depicting flowers highlighted with gilding. This style of Cameo was taken by Harrach to the 1900 Paris exhibition. Their stylized cameo technique employed an icicle effect -visible just below the orange band in most of the pictures. 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...
