The more I look at them the more I like them... Even though there is slight loss of gilding, which is only because they are probably 150-ish years old.... The opaline glass is without blemish with a polished pontil and is in a classic style with a tall collar above the baluster shape body.
The beauty is also in that they are a perfectly matched PAIR.... I have photographed them turning them a 1/4 turn each time until full circle to compare the two. The first front picture is a repeated on the back with the two medallions and the sides are floral swags. Please let me know if you need more photos..... MEASUREMENTS: 11 X 5 at widest point.
Please message me If you have a query. Also take a look at my other items for Glass, Antiques, Silver, Bronze, Copper, China, Horn, and many other collectables.
