The Shabaka Trio — Egyptian Perfume Bottles in Hand-Worked Gold Net, Set of Three
Shabaka means net: a lattice of gold-lustred glass drawn over the molten body by hand, thread by thread, while the piece is still glowing. It is the most demanding technique in this workshop.
Three silhouettes — teardrop, pear and oval — over blue, pink and green orbs. The trio is the Attar Collection's showpiece; a single Shabaka (violet, listed separately) is its entry.
— Mouth-blown borosilicate glass with hand-applied net overlay — Fired gold throughout; spire stoppers with dipping rods — Three silhouettes, approx. 18–20 cm — Made in our Cairo atelier, est. 1985
