Attributed to Harrach, Bohemia
Delicate and charming, this piece is a reminder of a more genteel time
Height 4 inch, Width 2.5 inch
Although from the Victorian era, the all round condition of the glass is remarkably good with very minor scuffs and minute ink residue. The brass collar benefits a wonderful aged patina, however it has suffered a closure sprain.
Wear consistent with age and use
