Hand blown and handpainted basket vase
Strange phenomenon mostly done on glass and some porcelain decorated with
transfer of this late 19th C Shah of Iran
Cobalt blue is most common, with a pale cranberry coming in second; some people say it's Moser but I can't tell. It is heavy and hand blown
Hand painted with Arabesque white enamel and gold vines with leaves
This is the only glass Shah basket I have seen
Handled examples of anything are ...always rare
This one is signed on bottom, forgive me if I have the Arabic word upside down
8.5" high 6" widest point
