For your consideration is an amazing early/mid 20th century art glass ewer or, as called in Spanish, "porron"
All mouth blown and hand enameled glass, Moser type
Amber brown color
Classical bulbous shape with a curved spout and long neck
Exquisitely hand painted all over with vividly colored raised enamels and golden highlights, featuring Medieval symbols: a domino, a lance, some heraldry banners, among white feathers
Hand blown decorated ball stopper with cork
A typical piece of art from the renown Catalan Majorcan art glass studios in Mallorca, Balearic Islands, Spain. Possibly by Vidrios da Arte Gordiola, the Gordiola Glassmaking Company, which is the oldest, established in 1719
The Mallorcan production rivals the best examples of the Venetian and Murano glassworks
In July 2021 the technique of glass-blowing was recognized by UNESCO as an Intangible Cultural Heritage.
Signed Royo.. by the artist Jose Cire Royo
The signature is in gilt cursive, right under the base of the handle, hardly discoverable. Please see the last photo
