Bacchus Hand-Blown Crystal Large Water Jug

Theresienthal’s Bacchus collection of crystal glassware was designed in 1890 by Henriette Steigerwald – the daughter and niece of the founding duo and the student of German portrait painter Franz von Lenbach. The designs feature delicate rosettes and beading, reflective of the Romantic aesthetic of the Wilhelmine era. This hand-blown jug is dotted with three-dimensional coloured glass accents that are applied while still hot.
