Art Funeral: Museal Set: Trio Of Mercury Glass Memento 1907 1910 1912

As far as I can remember, this is the first time I've encountered these blown, mercury-coated glass relics, engraved in memory of people who have passed away but have never been forgotten. It seems that as long as you name people, they don't evaporate... So, read aloud in their memory... Rosalie Marneffe (memory of Ste Anne in 1907). Joseph Duhant (memory of Quevaudant in 1912). Marthe Wagnier (memory of 1910 in Blaton). These messages are engraved for eternity in intaglio in the glass, surrounded by their interlacing fern. The size of a pancake, 4 cm deep, sealed with a cork, fragile like glass witnesses, these funerary "dishes" have internal stretch marks due to the mercury, which doesn't like the passing of time. Funeral art objects worthy of being included in a dedicated museum. They are priceless...
