The Holiday Table Event cheapest RARE - Pair Signed Moser Glass Amethyst Fade w Gold Enamel Gilt Filigree Punch Cups Set of 2 #1550 - Bohemia/Austri

Beautiful and rare, set of 2 amethyst (purple) fade punch cups with heavy gold gilt filigree hand painted decoration. I don't know if they used 24K gold but I wouldn't be surprised that they did, Moser was high quality and expensive when made. These are marked with the Moser logo on the base - but it is very hard to see. The base appears to be a combination of the two pictured which were mainly used 1891 - 1918. At the time these were made the Moser factory was located in Bohemia (Austria/Hungary.)

Size: 3.25" h x 2.5" w, not including handle, holds 5-6 oz.

Condition*: Very good for age & use, both appear to have a chip in the rim but I believe these are popped air bubbles and are original to the piece. There is a small scuff mark on one rim and there is a dull spot on one handle, which I also think is from its cheapest manufacture and might be a smudge of gold gilt.

Keats said "A thing of beauty is a joy forever". Each of us has a different idea of what "beauty" is. I find unique vintage items and offer them to you, the beholder.

*I check my breakable pieces very carefully under a strong light and check all the edges/handles for chips & cracks, I try to list condition as accurately as I can but that said, I am human and may miss things, please let me know if you find anything amiss with your item. I don't usually note rough spots, air bubbles or spots missing glaze that came from the creation of the piece, only defects which happened after purchase.
