Found outside Lyon from a dealer we've worked with for years, this vintage French glass piece came from his father's collection, built up over decades of looking. This one is a plain blown-glass cloche, smooth and clear with a solid rounded knob to lift it by. Domes like it were set over a cake or a round of cheese to keep it under cover, the glass letting you see what was waiting without lifting the lid. Sylvie drops it over whatever is on the counter, the kind of piece that turns an everyday thing into something worth looking at.
