Vase (2) - Opaline glass

Very elegant pair of opaline vases painted and gilded from the Napoléon III era, dating from the second half of the 19th century.

The vases feature a rich Romantic polychrome decoration depicting young ladies in pastoral landscapes, framed by delicate gold motifs and wide Bordeaux friezes highlighted with fine gold.

The scenes are finely executed, as are the rich gilding, offering a beautiful decorative effect.

The two opalines are in good condition for objects that are about 150 years old.
