Daum-Style Cherry Tree Motif Hand-Painted Vaseline Glass Vase, circa 1900 ***SOLD***

A very uncommon and striking circa 1900 hand-painted cherry tree motif vaseline glass vase done in the style of Daum. Square, gathered form in vaseline glass—also known as uranium glass—that has a lovely faintly milky citron color in natural light, and a saturated glowing bright green color when exposed to black light. Finely hand-painted blossoming cherry trees adorn two sides, with the realistic brown tree details and impressionistic red-dotted white blossoms giving the design a great sense of visual depth. Features a flared mouth with gilt-finished rim. Beautifully done in a manner that strongly resembles contemporaneous highly collectible Art Nouveau works produced by Daum, the prominent and important glass studio in Nancy, France. Dimensions listed are overall; mouth is 2.25 inches square. Dimensions: Height: 7.5 in Width: 2.5 in Depth: 2.5 in Condition: Good Wear consistent with age and use. In very good antique condition. A tiny spot of wear to gilt finish on one side of rim. A slight amount of shelf wear on underside. A bit of dirt residue on bottom corners of interior, likely correctible with careful cleaning.
