Bohemian stone glass vase with metal mounting. Lithyalin glass marbled in green, blue and yellow tones with twelve facets. Flanked by two ormolu handles decorated with scrollwork and hanging rings. Circa 1820.Footnote: Lithyalin glass is an opaque or translucent marbled glass with a surface resembling polished gemstones in a wide range of colors. It was first made by the chemist Friedrich Egermann (Bohemian, 1777-1864) in 1828 in northern Bohemia, and he patented the process in 1829. When this patent expired, similar pieces were made in France, Bohemia, China and Russia.
