Circa 1878. This work is a very rare piece in the Japonism style, with luster painting applied to a clear crystal glass base, and delicate floral patterns are drawn with enamel and gold. At first glance, it looks like colored glass, but the pale colors are due to the luster painting technique. Luster painting is a sophisticated technique that involves applying metal powder to the glass surface for coloring, and the color changes softly depending on the light. This is a valuable work of the type that has also been featured in Old Baccarat magazines. This was made before 1936, so there is no Baccarat mark. [Dimensions] Width: Approximately 12cm Height: Approximately 7.8cm [Condition] There are some age-related scratches, but it is in very beautiful condition. (Antique item)
