A radium-green claret-jug with hand-enamelled hunting scenes, from the workshop of Anton Ambrosius Egermann (son of Friedrich Egermann) for the Viennese company Lobmeyr. Egermann was noted for his Historismus enamelled glassware, and only worked to commissions from Lobmeyr for a short time (1873 to 1878). As with all such pieces, the base of this one is enamelled with both the Egermann 'anchor with 3 stars' in white, and the Lobmeyr logo in blue (see detail at right)

A most unusual inkwell/pen-holder, from about the middle of the 19th Century, and probably English. The interior is marbled blue, white and amethyst glass with included bubbles. it has then been massively cased in clear glass which has been heavily cut, with a leaf-shape at each corner. It is extremely heavy and therefore stable, as it would need to be to support a quill or dip-pen. The base is step-cut all around, and it may originally have fitted into a base of some sort. The pontil is ground and polished
| Our reference: | 7794 | Date: | mid 19th Century |
| Manufacturer: | unknown | Origin: | probably English |
| Dimensions: | height 7 cm, weight 445 gm | ||
| Condition: | a few very minor chipples, but generally good | ||
