Rare Art Deco "Garlic" Model Uranium Glass Hyacinth Vase – Glasfabriek Leerdam This refined hyacinth bulb vase is a classic example of Dutch Art Deco glassware, dating from approximately the 1930s to 1950s. The vase is crafted in the iconic "annagroen" or uranium glass, which exhibits a vibrant, luminous glow under ultraviolet light. Its silhouette features the distinctive "Garlic" or "Belle" shape, characterized by a bulbous body and a flared, cup-like rim. The lower section of the vase is decorated with elegant vertical optic ribs that catch and refract light beautifully. This specific ribbed design is often associated with the retailer Rimac and high-quality production from Glasfabriek Leerdam. Standing as a functional piece of horticultural history, it was originally designed to support a flower bulb while allowing the roots to grow into the water below. The glass is remarkably clear with a delicate lime-green tint that remains striking even in natural daylight. Its balanced proportions and clean lines reflect the modernist design principles prevalent during the mid-20th century. This item is a sought-after piece for collectors of Dutch glass, uranium glass, or vintage gardeniana. The vase is in excellent vintage condition, showing only the minor signs of age consistent with careful use. Every detail, from the smooth rim to the textured base, showcases the craftsmanship of European glass blowing.
