Daum Nancy, Broken Egg Floral

The broken egg may be my favorite shape in Daum Nancy.  It comes in a few sizes, with this one being medium, 4" tall.  It's the most beautiful example of a broken egg that I've ever owned.  The flowers are acid-etched and enameled, but what's spectacular are the gilded tips of the flowers -- never saw that before.  The background is super, shading from a rich green to aubergine at the bottom.  Once there is any gilding in a Daum Nancy vase, it is frequently found in other parts, so the rim and the base both have gilding.  Signed.  Mint condition.
