Description from the seller
6 CLARISSE glasses
The Clarisse service appears in the 1879 and 1879 catalogs of the Val-St-Lambert crystal glassworks (see photo).
It is characterized by a very slender leg, with a fairly distinctive double button at its center.
Five rows of stars were wheel-engraved on the lip, surrounded by two horizontal lines also wheel-engraved. Looking closely, one can see that each star is different.
The Poor Clares had been established in Liège since the 14th century, where they lived in community in a convent located in the district that still bears their name. During the Liège Revolution and the French annexation, the religious orders were suppressed. In 1795–1797, the convent was confiscated and sold as national property. The community was dissolved and the nuns were forced to leave the premises, with no documented collective reinstallation. The monastery disappeared definitively and the site was repurposed in the 19th century. The presence of the Poor Clares in Liège would be reestablished only in the 20th century, without direct institutional continuity.
Presence of micro-bubbles linked to the manufacturing methods of the 1880s.
It will be shipped well wrapped.
NOTE: To reduce costs, delivery is planned to a pickup point (B, L, NL, F, I, Sp, P)
