In good vintage condition. 2” X 1/2” Essex was a well-renowned enamel miniaturist and, somewhere along the line, his name became mistakenly associated with reverse crystals. The name "Essex crystals" became a commonly heard misnomer for these unique creations and the term continues to crop up even today.
