Art Deco Reverse Painted Colored Foils Signed A beautiful example of early century reverse painting under glass by Smith Frederick, a well known artist of this era. In this piece, he has incorporated the use of coloured foils in the embellishment of the flowers in the vase, with the exception of two of the top centre flowers, where the foils are used only for the centre of those two flowers and the petals reveal the background of the picture. Also the black leaves spiking out from the floral arrangement, all of the outlines of each individual flowers, the vase and decorative embellishment on the vase are reverse painted under glass, without the foils. The colours used in the foils are really lovely and still exceptionally vibrant. He has used colours of silver, copper, bronze and pewter with teal blue for the bluebell flowers. This work is all in perfect vintage condition, with no issues to note whatsoever. This work has stood the test of time magnificently. Unfortunately, my pictures don't do this work adequate justice at all as it was difficult to capture the beauty of the colours and flawless artistry in this piece without getting significant glare from the glass. The background colour is a pink peach. The frame is wood painted black with an inner banding of gold and is in very good vintage condition with no significant signs of wear. The measurements are 7-3/4 inches wide from east to west and 11-3/4 inches tall from north to south, including the frame which is 1/2 inch wide all around. Signed by the artist, Smith Frederick.

Oil Painting on Glass, Southern Belle in Garden A very charming hand painted picture on glass with pale pink satin under the glass. This beautiful early 1900's picture depicts a southern belle sitting in a garden, she holds a basket of pale pink and blue flowers over one arm and she is gazing up at two birds fluttering around a bird house. Many beautiful flowers in the garden in delicate shades of lilac, lavender, pink and mint green. She wears a lovely pink and white dress with blue flowers at the sleeves and a large black bow at the back to match the ribbons in her bonnet. Her hair is dressed in ringlets and this delightful work may even date back as far as the Victorian era, although I believe it is around 1900 - 1920. The painting is in perfect condition with absolutely no flaws, no scuffing, no scratches and no loss of paint anywhere at all - and the colours are strong and vibrant. The glass is quite dirty and I have not dared to clean it for fear of inflicting any damage but have left in it's original as found condition. The frame is wood, painted black with an inner banding of gold. The frame itself shows very minor wear except for the paper backing covering the back which is very brittle and fragile and has been poorly taped at one corner, as I have shown in the picture. There is a small brass fixture on the back for hanging. I see no signature on this piece and have not attempted to take it apart to look for one. The measurements are 6-1/2" inches by 6-1/2" inches square, including the frame - the inside painting is 5-1/4" inches square. The frame has a few minor abrasions which are not at all noticeable, overall, this delightful and so charming oil painting has withstood the test of time extraordinarily well. This painting was done in oils, the gown in particular shows some beautiful brush work.

The Jaeger le Coultre watch company is one of the oldest Swiss watchmakers. Antoine le Coultre opened a small factory in Le Sentier in 1833 where current factory remains. Le Coultre quickly built a reputation for quality and precision, so much so that he became the leading supplier of movements to the watch making industry in Switzerland. In 1925 Antoine's grandson, David, merged the company with that of Edmond Jaeger, which is when the current day company, Jaeger le Coultre came into existence. It is one of the few Swiss companies still producing its own movements, cases, dials and bracelets. This gives the company total control over the quality and precision of its watches and is a contributory factor for it being one of the small number of elite watchmakers with a world wide reputation for quality and precision. Jaeger le Coultre has been one of the most innovative watchmakers in the world, having produced a number of revolutionary inventions including the Atmos Perpetual Motion Clock (which operates on air pressure) and the creation of the world's smallest mechanical movement which weighed less than one gram.
