I is for Intaglio

Tuesday May 19, 2009
When I wrote about Goofus glass a couple of weeks ago, I referred to some pieces having an intaglio effect. This term is also referenced quite frequently in relation to cameo jewelry. If you aren't quite sure what this means, take a quick look at this definition of intaglio to learn more and see a beautiful French Intaglio Glass vase circa 1920.
