A Francoise Legras'Sofia' shape, tall amethyst glass cylinder vase enamelled with poppies and gilded foliage decoration. The case has a hexagonal gilded rim a round neck and body, the body is thickly hand painted in enamels in a sylised poppy design. There is polished pontil mark to the base c1900. Sometimes these vases are numbered but not so this one. Glass is excellent, no restoration, chips, cracks and no staining, some rubbing to the gilding on the rim but in the main it is fine, enamelling is in excellent order for age, other signs of wear commensurate with age and use.
This is the 2nd of a pair of these vases that I have listed, this one being the slightly taller of the two. Please look at my other British and continental antique glass currently listed from well known manufacturers including; Walsh, Webb, Whitefriars, Stuart, Baccarat, St Louis, Meyrs Neffe, Moser, Fritz Heckert, Legras and Val St Lambert etc. This item is in the category "Pottery, Ceramics & Glass\Decorative Pottery, Ceramics & Glass\Vases".
