CUT CRANBERRY TO CLEAR SULPHIDE BEAKER, 19TH C., H 5" DIA 3 5/8":A Victorian gentleman's sulphide cameo portrait encased in cranberry glass; cut to clear faceted panels of stars about the body. Initialed "CGK" to portrait's neck.

Condition

There are very few and minor surface scratches on the body. There is some wear to the base. This is commensurate with age and use. Otherwise, this is a nice old piece in good condition for its age.
