1902 Poschinger Amethyst Silver Overlay Green Cabochon Iridescent Art Glass Vase

  
This is for a Stunning 1902 Poschinger Amethyst Oil Spot with Silver Overlay and Green Cabochons Iridescent Art Glass Vase. Silver and green glass cabochon overlaid art glass vase by Ferdinand von Poschinger (Buchenau, circa 1902). The Silver silver overlay Design features five green glass cabochons. Often Art Nouveau / Jugendstil overlay art glass vases tend to "smother" the natural beauty of the glass decor below. This vase by Ferdinand von Poschinger, which can be found in two different sizes (of which this is the taller), was designed in such a way that the overlay and underlying decor do not interfere and compliment each other.

The green glass cabochons provide a needed contrast to the predominant purple iridescent colored ground. This is an example of art glass and silver overlay from the height of the Art Nouveau / Secessionist period. Measures: 8.5" Tall x 3.75" Wide. Some wear to the Silver Overlay, Mainly Around the Top "Eyes" where parts are missing. See Photo's for Complete Description and Condition.

Would make a great addition to any collection.
