ABOUT PRODUCTID 4984
This French ladies’ flask from the late 19th to early 20th century exemplifies the refined craftsmanship of the Belle Époque. Its slender, elongated silhouette combines clear, hand-cut crystal with gilt silver fittings (925/1000), marked with the French Minerva head hallmark. The cap and matching cup are adorned with delicately engraved Art Nouveau motifs: flowing, organic lines and stylized vegetal patterns. The monogram on the cork adds a personalized, historical touch, while the natural cork insert ensures a tight seal. The construction is precise, with seamless transitions between crystal and silver, and the overall proportions are elegant and balanced. The crystal’s polished surface, the luster of the gilded silver, and a subtle patina attest to authenticity and outstanding condition; there are no visible chips, scratches, or losses. Condition: excellent, with no traces of wear. This flask tells the story of an era when everyday objects could rival jewelry in their decorative appeal. The crystal, catching the light, and the silver, embracing it like a luxurious frame, evoke the spirit of French Art Nouveau – sensual, ornamental, attentive to detail. The swirling engravings on the fittings suggest freedom and lightness, as if this small vessel were a memento from a Paris
