Dimensions

Origin:
France, 19th century
This pair of Japanese-style double vases was made by the Baccarat crystal factory around 1880.
Founded under Louis XV, the French crystal manufacturer Baccarat showcased its excellence at the World’s Fairs throughout the 19th century.
These ruby crystal double vases feature identical decorations: each part is adorned with branches of cherry blossoms (called “sakura”) and birds facing each other. Geometric friezes decorate the top and base of the vases.
When the pair is assembled, the decorations mirror each other in two ways: the birds face each other between the two parts of each double vase, and the large vase of one features the same decoration as the small vase of the other, and vice versa. However, the mounts are different: one features cherries on their branches, while the other depicts poppy flowers.
Both mounts bear the Baccarat factory stamp, used from 1875 onwards. In addition to the stamp, one of the two vases connected by the mount also carries an original label.
