Series of six small, enamelled glasses from this series. Barcelona, Bonanova Subastas, 18/05/2023, lot. No. 733. The finishes are of a slightly different quality to the other glasses produced during Nogués’ and Crespo’s collaboration. They are more rigid and not as well blended into the glass as they are in other pieces. Some of these glasses are the same as the ones shown at the exhibition at the Palau de la Virreina in 1967.
