Victorian Harrach / Loetz Pink Opalescent & Vaseline Bohemian Art Glass Basket
This darling Victorian art glass basket is blown with spreading colours of pink opalescent. Hand painted enameling of apple blossom and branch with leaves on each side of the basket.
The crimped rim has a ribbon of vaseline green glass along the edge. The applied handle has a "reeded" decor pattern and at the end of each handle where it attaches to the bowl has two extending branches. Vaseline glass under UV+ light, as pic shows. Snapped pontil on the base. Possibly from Harrach during the 1890's or Loetz due to the "Aurora" ground colour found on the basket. The rim is 4-7/8 diameter. The base is 3 diameter.
The wooden base is not included. Best offers and questions are graciously welcomed!
