Acquired in S W France very recently, a rather beautiful, fine quality & antique pate de verre bowl/dish with enamelled foliage (Snowdrops?) It has various hues of pink, darker towards the upper edges. On a par with Gallé & other fine French Pate de Verre makers, it's an unusual piece with very decorative organic Art Nouveau forms & features.It is well made, a substantial & weighty ...piece, also it's very tactile, all surfaces & edges smooth to the touch - seems that decades of handling has further contributed to this.
There is no damage, no chips or nibbles to edges, I've not cleaned it, it remains in honest untouched condition, there is wear to the base in line with an authentic antique piece. The underside of the dish is perfectly flat, inside the dish, the bottom is slightly undulating, as though it has been pushed flat by fingers while molten.
