This elegant museum desk paperweight features a close-up detail from Alphonse Mucha’s 1897 poster promoting the liqueur La Trappistine. Beneath the clear glass half-dome, a serene young woman appears with long, flowing hair crowned by an abundant floral headdress.
Graceful Art Nouveau lines and softly glowing, halo-like rings surround her, drawing the eye to her face, jewels, and blossoms. The result is a compact homage to Belle Époque sophistication.
In the original color lithograph, the figure stands beside a bottle of La Trappistine resting on a table. This paperweight isolates the most lyrical portion of the composition, emphasizing her expression and the richly detailed ornamental halo.
