Very Rare Harrach Glassworks Formosa Decorated Boudoir Box Stunning piece of glass here folks, rare and fresh to the market! Harrach Formosa is a paperweight glass technique featuring red glass with either dark green aventurine or dark blue/green hot applied over the red, and then a final layer of clear glass crystal. It bridges the gap between Harrach's Victorian era glass to their Art Nouveau glass. Harrach Formosa is pretty rare in itself, but to find a Boudoir Box is even more so. This is only the second or third Formosa Boudoir Box I've seen in 25+ years of collecting and researching Harrach, and the only one I've seen in this oblong shape. Note that both the Harrach Glassworks as well as Riedel both made their own version of a similar glass. Unless signed, they are basically indistinguishable from each other. The work on this piece is amazing, quite a rare piece of glass, in an unusual shape Size: 3" x 6" wide x 3-1/2" tall. Outstanding condition, expected and appropriate age wear on the base. Handling fee to help offset eBay mandated insurance. Overall a superb quality example of Victorian ingenuity and glass craftsmanship at it's finest. The handling fee covers eBay mandated insurance, packing supplies, etc. I strive to get all fives in my eBay seller feedback, and work hard to achieve that. I gladly leave positive feedback to those that give high fives feedback. Thanks for looking, please ask questions, good luck! BUYERS PLEASE NOTE: Ebay and YOUR state may charge you sales taxes.

If this is a problem for you, you have a couple of options - file a tax exemption with eBay, contact your local tax authority or simply don't bid. Please do not contact me and complain about taxes, nobody likes taxes, but I am not a tax collector, it's eBay and your state.
