IPPOLITA | Large Glass Goddess

Description

This glass figure has an open head and can be used as a vase. I see it as a celebration of women, the female form and fertility. Great piece by Ippolita!

Bol Seine de la Laiterie de Rambouillet

First to recommend

Description

This two-part tasting bowl, commissioned from Sèvres by the Crown specifically for the farm, was designed for Marie Antoinette to partake of the farm's fresh milk and is said to be fashioned from a cast of her own breast.

The artists adorned the tripod with the head and hoofs of a goat, the Queen's favorite animal. In 2004, Sèvres produced these two special bowls directly from its original moulds. An 18th Century original resides in the museum at the Sèvres manufactory.

Hexenbecher witches cup

Description

I love the decadence of this subversive gilded witches cup. One side portrays a woman riding a goat, the other a woman riding a broom with a cat following.
