Enamelled Floret Basket with Tadpoles and Enamel Decoration.
I hope I have this right ... 'Floret' glass was the term used by Harrach to describe their opalescent glass.
This basket has opalescent 'dots', applied contrasting light yellow glass that forms a handle, rim & tadpoles and later enamelled with two floral displays of roses. But is it Harrach or Riedel ???
Painted within the polished pontil 218 / A 340 1
Bought April 3 2022 at Sydney Wenty Antique monthly market.
L: 14.5 cm.
W: 19.5 cm.
H: 11.5 cm.
Beautiful glass basket!
I love how the painting he did on the glass looks as fresh as the day it was made, so many images of beauty coming from this one piece !~
I'm not usually a fan of baskets, but this one is a gem.
Absolutely beautiful floral basket, the golden handle & painted flowers are awesome
Great to a basket vase in a different form, nice vetraio..
Very nice - I didn't see this one, you must have got in nice & early!
very very nice, is everything so different, the numbers in the bottom seems to point to Harrach but the enamel is no very common, I think that perhaps the enamelled was done by Carl Hosch or Legras? Just for thinking in other directions....
I think you have a seriously beautiful basket there. Good size too.
Many thanks to everyone for the loves and for these great comments. It was sitting on a shelf hidden behind some other stuff and I had not seen it until I was about to leave that morning. Just one last look !!!
