French Celadon Opaline Glass Soliflore Bud Vase, 19th-Century Aesthetic Movement

περιγραφή προϊόντος
£125.00
Συμπληρώθηκε η μέγιστη διαθέσιμη ποσότητα.

The pleasure of this little French soliflore is in the details. Its flowers and leaves resolve into tiny painted dots, edged with gold, running over the rounded body and up the slender neck. The pale celadon glass has a soft, milky translucence, and the proportions are beautifully balanced.

It belongs to the Aesthetic Movement period of the 19th century, with its enthusiasm for East Asian art and the belief that beauty had a place in everyday life. Glass and ceramics were collected and enjoyed for their colour, form and workmanship. That appreciation of a well-made object feels just as relevant today.

Approximately 17 cm high, 7 cm width. In good antique condition, holds water, no chips or cracks. With some wear to the gilding and factory indent on rim.

Collector’s Note

Bone ash was an unexpected ingredient in traditional opaline glass recipes. Rich in calcium phosphate, it helped create the characteristic milky appearance, while metallic oxides supplied the colour. Decorating the finished glass called for another set of skills: French enamel painters drew on the traditions of porcelain decoration, adding fine flowers, foliage and gilding to these luminous surfaces.
