A Trio of Bohemian Mary Gregory Style Cranberry Glass Liqueur Decanter and Cordial Glasses - This set is comprised of a hand-blown cranberry or gold-ruby glass liqueur decanter with two matching cordial glasses. The pieces feature hand-painted white enamel decoration in the Mary Gregory style, depicting children in a landscape. The decanter shows a young girl in Victorian dress walking through a stylized scene of trees and hills, while the glasses depict a boy and a girl in similar settings. The decoration is applied in a thick enamel that provides a raised, three-dimensional texture. Heavy gold gilding is present on the neck of the decanter and the rims of all pieces. The decanter includes a clear glass stopper with gold band accents and a ground plug. The bases are ground and polished. An etched mark on the base of the decanter reads MADE IN CZECHOSLOVAKIA in an arc, accompanied by the number 105 handwritten twice in yellow paint. Decanter height: 9 inches Glass height: 2 inches. The set is in very good vintage condition. No chips, cracks, or visible repairs are present on any of the pieces. The white enamel painted figures are well-preserved and exhibit no significant loss. There is light surface wear to the gold gilding on the rims and the decanter neck, which is consistent with age and handling. The stopper is intact and fits correctly.
