Description

This collection of glass objects includes eight decanters—which vary in their size—one huqqa and one huqqa base, one jug and beaker.

Four of the decanters are crafted from ruby red glass, three from green glass (one lime and two mint green), and one from clear glass. One of the mint green decanters is of unusual form, and its base and neck are encircled by silver bands. The huqqa is made from frosted mint green glass, and the huqqa base from clear glass which is partially covered with a red overlay. The jug is crafted from clear glass and the beaker from cut lime green glass.

The items are all finely decorated with colourful enamelwork, taking the form of stylised floral and foliate motifs. Some objects are further ornamented by colourful raised enamel beads and parcel gilt details. The beaker also features Islamic inscriptions on its front and reverse.

Small jug: Height 15cm, width 10cm, depth 7cm
Large decanter: Height 32cm, diameter 12cm
