Late 19th-century enamelled glass encompasses decorative items featuring opaque or translucent glass decorated with fired enamel paints, often showcasing floral or geometric motifs popular in French and Bohemian workshops.

These pieces typically combine mould-blown or pressed glass bases with applied metal mounts, hinges, and hand-painted vitreous enamel details fired at high temperatures to fuse the pigments with the glass surface.

Authentic items exhibit period-appropriate wear on metal fittings, hand-applied brushwork with slight textural raised enamel, and patination consistent with late 19th-century manufacturing methods rather than modern machine printing.

Position this item on a dressing table, bedside surface, or open shelf where its colour and reflective qualities can catch the light, adding a touch of historical craftsmanship to modern spaces.

Clean gently with a soft, dry microfibre cloth to remove dust, avoiding harsh chemical solvents, immersion in water, or abrasive materials that could damage the delicate enamel work or metal mounts.
