This Galle glass set includes a carafe, a footed wine glass, and a tray, all decorated with delicate enamel in the ‘Fleurs et rubans’ design with lovely purples and periwinkles. Its circa 1867 production date precedes the Art Nouveau movement by nearly 40 years, however connoisseurs will note definite similarities between the style’s curvilinear, nature-inspired forms and this set’s scrolling enameled decoration.
