Object description :

"Ring-shaped Or Pilgrim's Flask In Blown Glass, 18th Century, Fleur-de-lys"

Blown glass annular gourd decorated with fleur-de-lys pastilles and grooved tabs. This popular art object was first produced in the Nivernais, before reaching Burgundy and Normandy. Several similar models are notably part of the collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York (inv. 83.7.106, Henry Marquand collection, 1883) and the Musée des Arts Décoratifs in Paris (inv. D 796, donated by Jules Maciet, 1882). bibliography: Jacqueline Bellanger, Verre d'usage et de prestige 1500 - 1800
