Flower garland multi faceted weight Chinese or French
« on: January 31, 2020, 12:29:45 PM »
Hello
I bought this in a box of Caithness seconds and other modern glass pieces on a whim.
Thought it looked better than being stuck in the box.
A lot of nibbles to facets and the garland looked well done as opposed gaps etc.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.

French - Saint Louis, mid to later 19th century. Just for interest, what size is it?

Thanks Kevin.
I had a feeling it was French but when it’s in a box of let’s say unwanted items I doubted my eyes.
Will measure tomorrow I believe it’s around 3.5”.
Thanks again
