I am happy to share the newest enameled Baccarat vase to join my collection - it is a sweet little one, just 6" tall and has a cheerful deep rosy red background with a spray of roses across it. It is signed on the side of the vase towards the bottom 'Baccarat' and has the typical large perfectly round and shallowly ground base, numbered in dark red, of these types of Baccarat opaline pieces. I believe the vase dates to about 1880.
I fell in love with this one right away because of its size and the roses - so sweet! I have seen other Baccarat vases with this rose decor in gray, blue, and deep brown backgrounds, varying in size from 8" to 12" in height, and the color and size of this one drew me in. In image 3, I am showing a picture of it on my mantle, next to another Baccarat piece in my collection.
(By the way, the seller kindly let me use his images for 1, 2, and 4.)
Lovely!I'd fall in love with it too!
It is a real pleasure to see two lovely interpretations of the same décor. It must be even better close up......lucky you:)
They are so beauty as to get in love
Hi Ivonne, I am glad you think so! :)
sklo, thanks so much! I do enjoy seeing how makers used different decors, and how different they look against different backgrounds and shapes; your posts are often great examples of that!
Thank you, kivatinitz!

Hi Alan, thanks so much! And sure, I'd be happy to try to answer any questions you may have about Rindskopf. :)
Hi olebodie, no, actually many Baccarat pieces from this era are not signed at all. I am sorry, but I can't find your vase picture, but if you post a picture of it and let me know, I'd be happy to take a look.
and very lovely picture in the background!
Thank you! That is an antique woodblock print by J. Prescher; I currently have four by the same artist. No one knows their first name, or if they were male or female. I am always on the lookout for these. :)
