About the Item

A rare antique Saint Louis nosegay glass paperweight, made in France circa 1850 during the classic period of French paperweight production. The design features a delicate lampwork bouquet of white, pink and blue flowerheads, arranged among shaped green leaves and set above a diamond-cut clear ground. This combination of floral lampwork and cut glass gives the piece both depth and refinement. The nosegay motif is one of the classic subjects of 19th-century French paperweight making, associated with the great French glasshouses of Saint Louis, Baccarat and Clichy. Condition: good antique condition, with surface scratches and small marks consistent with age and handling. Please refer to the photographs for full condition details. A highly appealing early French Saint Louis paperweight for collectors of antique glass, lampwork flowers and classic period paperweights. We ship internationally, tracked and insured.
