Description from the seller

Ancient Biedermeier Liqueur Set – Carafe, Tray & 7 Glasses – Email Enamel Painting & Gold

Exquisite, 9-piece liqueur service from the Biedermeier era. The set impresses with its fine craftsmanship and the romantically decorative style typical of the period. Made of mouth-blown glass, each piece is unique (visible in the slightly varying dimensions and glass thicknesses of the glasses).
The set includes a bulbous carafe with an artfully twisted serpentine handle, a matching blossom-shaped tray, and seven liqueur glasses. The decoration consists of fine white enamel dot painting (lilies of the valley/foliage), hand-painted green clover leaves, and an elegant gold rim.
