I bought this in the hope that it is an example of Florentine Cameo Art glass. It has four lobes, each decorated differently and four bun feet. It is heavy for its size and has no marks to the base,
Height 20.5 cm./8 inches
It's got a great shape, & that unusual amber colour works so well with the cameo style decoration - very classy specimen!
Hi,
this nice vase may have been made by Harrach, the type of enamel painting is called in German 'Schnee-Malerei' what may be translated into 'Snow Painting'. This was quite popular around the 1900's.
I agree with kairomalte.... very beautiful enamel
Pretty vase with unusual colour and nice enamelling in good condition.
I like this one. A lot!
IronLace, I tend to agree, it is understated, yet still eye catching.
kairomalte, I too thought of Harrach as the shape and weight have characteristics of Harrach. I've not heard of the name you use for the style of enamelling but it's a style of painting that has acquired a colloquial name in English too.
kivatinitz, thank you, and I agree, Sylvia.
Ivonne, thank you, all those and eye catching too, Iwona.
kwqd,
And I like your comment. A lot :)
