Crystal Glass Bud Vase with Bulb Bottom and Ormolu Floral Wrapping
French Belle Epoque ormolu-mounted crystal vases
Circa 1880-1900
In the manner of Baccarat or Saint-Louis (No marks)
Reflect naturalistic neoclassical revival taste of late 19th century
Hand-blown and cut crystal with gilt bronze (ormolu) mounts
Tall, tapering fluted neck leading to lobed baluster base raised on six small glass feet
Mount features gilded climbing rose branch with buds, leaves and stems
Crispness of gilded vine, the fine clarity of the crystal, and the applied mount construction are all consistent with French atelier work
Crystal makers would supply plain blanks to bronze workshops, which then fitted ormolu mounts designed by artists trained in both classical and botanical motifs
Some air bubbles/nicks present\
