Antique Arts and Craft Cigar Band Ashtray Dish Reverse Hand Painted Glass Center:
$41.97
This antique glass dish or tray is a remarkably fine example of England's Arts and Crafts movement. As a response to the Industrial Revolution and perceived impoverishment of the decorative arts and the conditions in which they were produced, the Arts and Crafts movement flourished in Europe and North America at the end of the 19th Century. It is the root of Modern Style, and the British expression of what later came to be called the Art Nouveau era. This popular international design and art trend soon faded as World War I became a looming reality, along with rapid industrialization, mechanization, and mass production.This folk-art piece from a bygone era features a reverse hand-painted portrait of a stunning Victorian woman with pale pink roses in her upswept chestnut hair, at center. The beauty is also smelling a lovely pink rose. This portrait is surrounded by vibrant Cuban cigar bands. A multitude of rare cigar manufacturers are represented, including Murad, Cremo, etc. Measures approximately 7.5 inches in diameter by 1.5" high. Very good condition with some age-related wear and fading. The bottom is covered with cherry red felt. Please see photographs to gauge the overall quality of this striking piece.
Do not pass up your opportunity to purchase this unique reverse hand-painted piece of tobacciana.A great gift for glass collectors and cigar aficionados alike!
