Used; Like New/Used; Like New. A green glass posy holder with the etched inscription "To Oscar Love Bosie" and measuring approximately 1 x 7 cm. Small crack to rear lip of the glass, else fine. Resembling a small vase, the posy holder was romanticized as a fashion accessory and typically used to hold the flowers brought to ladies by their courting 'gentleman callers'. Acquired from a small regional UK auction house, there is no recorded provenance with this diminutive Wilde relic. The etching is quite clearly of the period and given the unique nature of the names, we have no reason to doubt that it was indeed an item which passed between them. The English poet and journalist, Lord Alfred Douglas, also known as "Bosie," was Wilde's partner for the last decade of the writer's life.  Douglas's father, the 9th Marquess of Queensberry, strongly disapproved of their relationship, and was at the center of the libel lawsuit that ultimately led to Wilde's imprisonment for sodomyThe posy holder is… Leer más
