Persian Qajar Style Cobalt Blue Enameled Glass Hookah Base with Naser al-Din Shah Portrait
Description
  • Date/Period: Approximate age: Mid-20th century, likely circa 1950s-1970s.
  • Dimension: Approx. 10.5" x 6"
  • Material: glass
  • Additional Information: Striking cobalt blue enameled glass hookah base decorated in the Persian Qajar style, featuring a portrait medallion of a royal figure commonly identified as Naser al-Din Shah. The vessel is richly adorned with hand-painted floral motifs, gilt accents, and traditional decorative elements characteristic of Persian-inspired glasswork.

    The vivid cobalt glass provides a dramatic backdrop for the detailed enamel decoration, while the portrait and ornamental borders reflect the influence of late 19th-century Qajar court imagery. Pieces of this type were produced both during the late Qajar period and later as decorative revival examples for the tourist and export market.

    An attractive display piece for collectors of Middle Eastern art, Islamic decorative arts, Persian glass, hookah accessories, and royal portraiture.
