Description: For auction is a beautiful piece of art glass made by Mont Joye of Paris, France. The vase is tall as it stands 9 7/8" and is approximately 4 1/2" in diameter at the base. The opening at the top of the vase is 3" outside diagonal measurements. The vase has a bulbous bottom with a raised neck, hexagonal top lip and there are vertical optic ribs throughout. The vase displays beautiful enameled fancy Tulips on a base glass of amethyst to clear. The vase has wonderful enameling of fancy Tulip flowers in full bloom. The flowers show a cream to dusty rose/mauve with the hints of salmon. The detail in the enameling is just beautiful. There are sprigs of ferns in the background painted in Gold that give the artwork a wispy feeling of Spring in the air. There are also leaves with nice shading of greens and blue/greens throughout the pattern. These leaves are outlined in Gold. The pattern is predominately on one side of the Vase. The Mottled Gold enameling along the top border finishes this piece exquisitely. The vase is considered to be in excellent condition as there are no cracks, chips, nicks or dings. There is very minor gold enamel loss around the top rim and there is some gold gild loss to some of the springs in the bottom. The beauty of this vase is in the color and enameling of the flowers. The vase is not signed but it has a countersunk polished pontil. This is the sign of quality piece of art glass. This pattern is not so commonly found and considered somewhat rare. You commonly find the Iris and Lily but rarely find the fancy Tulip pattern. This is a brief History of Mont Joye Glass Glass bearing the name «deVez», «Mont Joye», and «Pantin» was produced by the same company. E. S. Monot at La Villette near Paris founded this company in 1850. In 1859, known as «Cristallerie de La Villette» the company was transferred to Pantin, at that time a suburb of Paris and now a part of Paris. After F. Stumpf joined the company in 1868 it became «Monot & Stumpf». In 1873 Monot's son joined the company and the name changed to «Monot, Pere et Fils et Stumpf». About 1894 the company became known as the «Stumpf, Touvier, Violette & Cooye,» and the same company produced «Pantin». After WW1 merged with Legras & Cie. Mont Joye enameled glass was produced at the turn of the Century. It was extremely popular both in Europe and North America. This is a nice size Mont Joye Vase but not over powering. This type glass was of high quality and became very desirable among fine glass collectors. This vase was made circa 1900-1915. PLEASE READ BELOWI want to apologize for slowing down my shipping time. Ebay forced me into managed payments in July of 2020. I used to get my money in 24 hours. I now get it in 3-4 business days. I was told it would be better for me and my fees would go down. This has been the opposite as my fees have actually increased and now it takes longer for me to receive the payments. Because of this slowdown I will not ship until the payment has made it into my bank account. No store lets you out of the building with the merchandise unless it is paid for.They are also now charging all sellers a commission of 12% on sales tax. Pay Pal used to charge 2.9% payment processing fee but Ebay has changed this to 12%. This is an increase of 9.1% on the sales tax portion. They are now making a profit on the sales tax and treating it as a sale which in my eyes is wrong!! They did the same on the shipping charges several years ago. They use to not charge anything and now they are charging 12% commission on shipping as well. This has raised the cost to ship items to you, the buyer and this is factored into my shipping charges.If you feel what Ebay is doing is wrong or you don't agree them please contact Ebay and voice your opinion. Maybe if enough of you do this, they will change their policy. CLICK ON THIS LINK BELOW TO SEE MY EBAY STORE CLEMENTS ANTIQUES OF NEW HAMPSHIRE STOREFRONT Please wait for my Invoice before paying.
