AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Superb vase signed Legras, made of thick blown-molded glass, featuring a globular shape with a slightly narrowed opening.
The piece is heavy and massive, weighing more than one kilogram, which well reflects the quality of the glass used.
The decor, typical of the Legras style, consists of a relief frieze with spiral motifs and stylized elements, created with acid-etched techniques, applied as a broad horizontal band around the entire circumference. The brown and sepia tones, combined with a white and beige speckled background, create a beautiful textured and natural effect. The Legras signature is engraved on the decor.
