It was hand designed, enameled and gold gilded by the equally famous Moser art glass company in Carlsbad Bohemia. This stunning piece bears a dolphin stem lavishly flecked with gold aventurine. The dolphin has applied eyes. On the bottom of the stem base there is a rough pontil. Around the entire piece there is gold gilding, beaded colorful enameling and an applied design of dancing male neoclassical style nudes. In the late 19 th century Salviati sent many of their art glass creations to Moser to enamel, gild and design.
