Verre-eglomise is named after Jean-Baptist Glomey, a French 18th Century frame maker to Louis XVI, who used the technique extensively to decorate Mirrors and Trudeau for Marie-Antoinette.

Although the finest work was carried out in the 17th and 18th Century,
it is much older, with early examples of E’glomise’ glass decorated bowls from a tomb in Italy, dating from the third century B.C...
E’glomise’ glass is: metal leafing, on their own or in combination,
applied to the underside of a sheet of glass.

At its simplest a single or double line of gold leaf was laid on the glass,
protected by a layer of black paint.
This technique is still employed today for traditional prints at its most intricate complicated and elaborate designs can be achieved.
