Sevres France Satin Glass Chick Figurine Paperweight
View Collectible Glass Category
This fine Sevres crystal figurine is from Cristal de Sevres of France, a world
famous crystalier. It is is a highly collectible glass figurine and is a very high-quality
piece of crystal glass figurine. This France Sevres is a satin glass figurine of
a chicken sitting on top a shiny round glass ball. It would make a great crystal
Sevres figurine or a heavy paperweight. The bottom is acid-etched "Sevres France."
I tried to take a picture of it, but I couldn't get the engraving.
This company was founded over 250 years ago and continues to produce some of
the very finest crystal in the world. The original mission of Cristal de Sevres was to provide perfect glass crystal to the
court of King Louis XV of France. Their centuries old heritage of perfection continues
today with exquisite representations of the glassblower's art.
I bought this Sevres piece from the estate of a very wealthy Norwegian sea captain
who purchased items from around the world. He and his wife had a magnificent collection
of glass pieces, and this paperweight was part of that collection.
This crystal glass figurine is in very good condition. There are no chips
or cracks, but there a few very minor scratches on the side of the base. I didn't
see them until I was listing this item, so they are not very obvious! What a perfect
gift for yourself, that Sevres crystal collector, or that special bird lover!
Measurements: 4-3/4" tall, and the base is 2-3/4" wide.
Item: JS1811
