Rare multi-layered glass vase in the shape of a gourd, acid-etched in opaque white and oxblood red. This vase, known as “Peking glassware,” imitates Asian porcelain and its famous whiteness. Opalescent glass with little transparency and beautiful red lotus flowers and leaves in relief, applied with a wheel. Fire-polished finish on the surface. Japanese-style “Gallé” signature imitating Japanese calligraphy characters. Perfect condition.
