Daum Nancy, Flask

Daum Nancy Nancy lay-down perfume bottles are rare and collectible. The work and color on this example are killer.  The flower is three-dimensional because the center was molten applied. Then it was wheel-carved when it was cold and hand-enamel painted and gilded. Finally it was fired to fuse the paints and make them permanent. It's one of the only times I can think of where these multiple time-consuming techniques were used together. It's the best example I've ever owned. 6" long. Signed. Excellent condition except the stopper is stuck.
