Rare antique Baccarat upright bouquet and torsade paperweight. A large cobalt blue flower, with a yellow core cupping a complex blue and white millefiori, has an unusual halo of alternating green, red and white sepals which launch an impressively lush cascade of curled green leaves and two red and white buds. A blue-encased white torsade encircles the cascading stem of the bouquet, topped by a mercury ring. Star-cut clear ground. Diameter 2 15/16".
