Victorian Harrach Cased Glass Vase with Thorn Handles

Antique Bohemian art glass with quilted pattern, blue ombre, ruffled rim, late 1800s

This exquisite antique vase embodies the artistry of late 19th-century Bohemian glassmaking. Attributed to the renowned Harrach glassworks, it features cased glass in a striking diamond quilted pattern with an ethereal ombre effect that shades from soft opaline white to sky blue.

The ruffled rim blossoms outward, while two distinctive applied thorn handles frame the body — a hallmark of Harrach’s dramatic Victorian style. The base bears a polished pontil mark, further attesting to its hand-crafted origins.

An outstanding example of Victorian art glass, this vase bridges delicate beauty with bold craftsmanship, making it a rare treasure for collectors and an eye-catching accent for display.
