Champagne Goblet
(18th and 19th Centuries )
The flaring red and pink plique-à-jour enamel bowl is decorated with abstract floral designs in white, pink, turquoise, blue, and red enamel. At the juncture of the stem, six silver gilt wire leaflets extend outwards. A translucent green stone ring separates the bowl from the flaring foot which is in striated and textured silver gilding. The foot is further adorned with irregular patterns of tiny spheres.
