AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Pair (2) of Bonbonnière / Glass Flask Box in Turquoise Opaline Glass and Pink – Attributed to Baccarat / Saint-Louis, France, 19th Century.

Elegant and refined antique bonbonnière (or flask box) from the 19th Century (Napoleonic III / Charles X period), made in precious blown opaline glass in the characteristic turquoise blue shade (bleu céleste).
The body, with a slender silhouette on a circular foot and a baluster stem, in refined opaline glass.
The brilliance of the blend, the purity of the opaque blue, and the quality of the glass paste link the piece to the excellence of French crystal factories of the era, with attribution to the glass masters of Baccarat or Saint-Louis.

Typology: Bonbonnière / Covered vase / Boîte flacon
Era: 20th Century (circa 1950–1980)
Origin: France
Attribution: Manufacture of Baccarat / Saint-Louis
Materials: Opaline glass (crystal opalin), gilded bronze (ormolu)
Color: Turquoise blue (Bleu turquoise / Bleu céleste)
Height: 24 cm - 13 cm
Width (max diameter): 10 cm - 13 cm
Conditions: Excellent period condition. Glass intact, without chips or cracks. Solid bronze mounting and hinge perfectly functioning with a beautiful original patina.

Notes for the collector
Opaline turquoise objects produced by Baccarat and Saint-Louis in the mid-19th century were made without a stamped mark (as acid-etched or punch marks were introduced regularly only starting in 1936). The execution quality of the blowing and the color details make this piece a highly charming decorative piece with historical value for collectors.

We do not ship to the United States.
