Fantastic Bergen Columbia Roseglobe SOLD |
I love this pattern – it features tons of clear tusk cutting (one of the hardest motifs to achieve) and fine, wood-wheel posliehd cutting. In addition to that, the pattern raps seamlessly around the base – it’s a true testament to the quality of the piece and design.
Large, deep hobstars sit around the top portion of the globe and sit above two giant, clear tusks. These turks connect 8-pointed hobstars framed by crosshatching. The tusks also frame 4 more additional 8 point hobstars. The center of the piece features split, crosshatched vesicas framed by even more tusks! A ton of skill and care was taken into make this piece.
The roseglobe is in perfect condition and measures 6 1/2″ wide and 5 1/2″ tall. It’s on a stunning blank and is an exceptional example of Brilliant Period cut glass.
