Antique and simply exquisite, 3 fine glasses for port by St Louis and we feel have a strong "
Art Nouveau" style to them.
Pattern is called "ANVERS" which appears in the 1930's catalogue but upon research, it is also said that they appear in the 1900 catalogue but I can only confirm 1930's...you may know different and photos are just for your information and reference only.
Intaglio hand cutting and engraving around the body, of Palmettes leaves (plain) and Louis XV1 garlands which has been delicately gold gilded to catch the light and both rims are gilded too. Very long ring when tapped and the gilding shines in the light, along with the crystal. Unsigned because before 1936 and no pontil.
The glasses are top quality, fine thin and delicate and were probably by a master engraver and they are all from the same pattern. I am selling others from this pattern too, just ask.
Lots of photos provided, all will enlarge for closer inspection. Just ask if questions.
Priced for 3 glasses and 2 measure 5 2/8" high x 2 1/8" top rim diameter and holds 80ml. The other glass is slightly bigger at 5 2/8" high x nearly 2 3/8" top rim diameter and holds 90ml.
In good condition with no chips cracks or nibbles and the gilding is good too, some areas more bright than others but we were checking through a magnifier, so wouldn't normally notice. Glass striations and tiny air bubbles may be present due to the manufacture and normal.
