PAPIER MACHE PICTORIAL SPECTACLES READING GLASSES CASE HUNTING LADY STOBWASSER:
$383.94

This is for afabulousand very well preserved Georgian spectacles case in papier machewith hand painted images on both sides.One side depicts a rather comical hunting scenethat shows a man carrying another man on his back across a stream. The man is holding a rifle and they have a dog following them. The reverse of the case is beautiful, it shows a young lady looking directly ahead, which is unusual anddrinking from a tapered glass. This is verymuchin the Stobwasser style, it dates fromfrom the veryearly 1800s where the papier mache is painted in oil paints and sealed in a clear lacquer. The case has its original inner sleeve that is embossed on both sides and has its small tab to pull it out with ease. It is literally about as good as it gets with these, they were very susceptible to all kinds of wear and aging, but this one has obviously been put away somewhere to have survived in this condition, there are no cracks, no splits, the lacquer finish is still nice and smooth and there is only the very verylight wear you see in the pics...both sides look vibrant and alive. It measures 134mm (5.25\") by 68mm (2.75\").
