A very pretty late Victorian art glass shot glass worked in zwischengoldglas. The base of the crystal glass is hollowed out, decorated with a handpainted floral design against a gilt background and then sealed with a crystal plug cut to fit perfectly. The technique was used in the late Victorian era to mimic a type of Bohemian art glass made earlier in the century. This example features a bright pink carnation that is magnified and reflected in the flat panel cutting along the sides of the glass. Unsigned, but very likely made by Moser.Origin: Bohemia, ca. 1890. Condition: excellent, no chips or cracks, no loss to gilt or enameled decoration. Size: 2-11/32” tall.

A very fine pair of double-sided cufflinks by Seaman Schepps.

The setting is substantial, yet its delicacy allows the rich green color and internal characteristics of the emeralds to take center stage. Schepps was among the earliest of American jewelry designers to use cabochon and tumbled stones as primary gemstones. Even after 50 years, his colorful designs still seem completely contemporary. Each cufflinks is marked for 18K gold and is signed with Schepps’ hallmark. The cufflinks are accompanied by their original Schepps packaging. These links originally retailed for $5,500.Origin: America, ca. 2005. Condition: excellent, all original. Size: faces approximately, 9/16” x 7/16”. Weight: 10.8 grams.
