$220.00
Antique 1880's decanter Fritz Heckert Historicism polychrome enamel hand painted and gilded hand blown Glass flask. The armorial front is depicting a coat of arms with unicorn and the initials SF AZ with the date of 1599. On the reverse side is an urn vase with flowers also gilded. It is a large 10" tall bottle with chipping on the edge of the stopper and lots of tiny bubbles in the glass. Smooth pontil mark. This exact bottle is included in a catalogue of glass pieces in Eike Gelfort's collection in Germany on page 37.

Most of my items come out of estates on Martha's Vineyard and some from other places in New England. The island of Martha's Vineyard where I had lived for the past 18 years is home to many old original families of sea captains and sailors so fascinating things come up when there are estate sales. Please check my other listings. I am putting up a large collection of glassware, china, linens and postcards that I have gotten over the years out of these estates. I try to do a lot of research and give good descriptions but I am not an expert in everything so please ask questions or if you know something about a piece and are willing to add your input into my listings please contact me!

I am happy to combine shipping on multiple items if possible. I will ship internationally but please contact me for the shipping cost before bidding. 6.25% sales tax on bidders from Massachusettes. Please check my other new listings over the next couple of days. Returns are welcome if item is not as described, refund for item cost only. I take very detailed photos and give good descriptions. Please see all pics and enlarge to see details. Ask me any questions before purchasing.
