Additional gilt accents highlight the rim and foot. The reverse features a small stylized floral motif, adding balance to the design. Graceful proportions and refined decoration typical of 19th Century English decorative glass.

Collector’s Notes: Portrait-decorated Victorian opaline glass was highly fashionable in the later 19th Century, often inspired by miniature portrait painting traditions. Pieces combining delicate painting with original gilding remain sought after for their elegance and decorative appeal.
