Antique 19th Century Burmese Glass Vase Hand Painted Mt Washington Thomas Webb
Presenting a beautifully decorated antique Burmese glass vase. The quality of this exceptional example is evident at first site and there is no doubting it was produced by one of the leading 19th century Burmese glass makers, most likely Mount Washington or Thomas Webb.
The stylishly proportioned Oriental inspired piece has been masterfully hand painted with an exceptionally well executed design typical of the Aesthetic Movement. Bamboo borders divide the bulbous shaped body into two halves with a wading stork adorning one half and a swallow flying above an idyllic landscape adorning the opposing side.
An acanthus leaf design adorns the shoulder while a delightful bird and blossom branch design decorates the neck creating a perfectly balanced and pleasingly harmonious design. EXQUISITE QUALITY 19TH CENTURY BURMESE GLASS VASE.

The hand painted design is rendered in gold and deep burgundy tones accented with relief beads of glistening gold adding a luxurious jewel-like sparkle throughout. A gilt gold trim to the top rim perfectly unifies the exquisite design.
