I personally sourced this amazing piece at an Antique Mall, in Scottsdale, AZ

Excellent condition. No damage, cracks.

This charming mid-century reverse-painted glass silhouette captures a classic, elegant scene of a colonial-style couple sharing tea. The artwork showcases intricate black silhouette figures finely detailed against a vibrant, textured gold-foil background that beautifully catches the light. This striking contrast creates a captivating depth, highlighting the delicate lines of the period attire, the tea table, and the surrounding decorative elements.

Beyond its striking aesthetic, this piece belongs to a highly collectible genre of mid-century and Art Deco-era home decor. Reverse glass painting, or verre églomisé, is a historic folk-art technique that requires the artist to meticulously apply details in reverse order directly onto the back of the glass pane. Pieces like this, especially those preserving the romanticized Colonial Revival themes popular from the 1920s through the 1950s, are treasured by collectors for their historical nostalgia and the unique shadow dimensionality they cast onto the shimmering foil beneath.

Measuring 7x5 inches, this compact piece is perfectly sized for versatile styling throughout your home. To make displaying this vintage treasure effortless, it comes complete with a free black display stand. The sturdy stand elevates the slim frame, making it ideal for immediate placement on a mantel, bookshelf, or side table to bring an instant touch of classic warmth and retro sophistication to any interior space. There is also an attached tab with hole on the reverse side if you did want to hang on a wall.
