About this work

Rock crystal vases and bowls were made in various workshops in Prague around 1600. With its organic shape and fluttering ornamentation this shell-shape tazza seems to be blown along by the wind. This delicate decoration is typical of the leading Prague workshop, that of the Miseroni family.
