ABOUT PRODUCTID 104
This glass epergne with a central fluted vase, attributed to M. Gregory, exemplifies late 19th-century American decorative glass. The piece comprises a hand-blown, amber-gold pedestal dish with high translucency and a lustrous finish, featuring a ruffled, undulating edge accentuated by a fine dark outline. The matching central vase, also with a fluted rim, is adorned with a hand-painted white figurative scene of a child amidst delicate floral and fern motifs. The absence of visible seams attests to skilled craftsmanship, while the well-proportioned construction and round pedestal base ensure stability. The condition is very good, with no chips, cracks, or repairs; only minor wear to the painted decoration in keeping with the object's age.The tactile quality of this epergne evokes the Victorian era, a time when decorative arts became vessels for both storytelling and emotion. Organic, flowing lines and softly undulating edges seem to whisper of a period when everyday objects were designed with aesthetic pleasure and a sense of occasion in mind. The amber glass catches and diffuses light, casting warm reflections, while the delicate figurative scene—like a moment from childhood suspended in time—speaks to the sentimental spirit of the 19th-century home.This piece would serve as a striking focal point on a classical sideboard or console in the living room. It could be paired with other glass accessories in similar hues, Victorian-style porcelain, or mirrors with ornate frames. Eclectic, collector-oriented interiors, or those inspired by Art Nouveau and late 19th-century design, would allow its decorative qualities to shine. Placing a few single blooms in
