Description from the seller

Val Saint Lambert "Hambourg" 1913 – Rare Three-Footed Bowl & Matching Underplate

This remarkable set belongs to the historic "Hambourg" service, a masterpiece originally designed by Charles Graffart and René Delvenne for the famous 1913 Val Saint Lambert catalogue. Crafted in high-quality pressed demi-cristal, the pieces showcase a timeless "Diamond Point" pattern that produces a brilliant play of light.

While more common items from this series, like cake plates, are occasionally found, this specific three-footed serving bowl paired with its original wide-rimmed underplate is a truly elusive discovery.

The bowl features a sturdy yet elegant base with three sculpted scroll feet, elevating it into a grand centerpiece for any table. Collectors will recognize the distinctive sunburst design on the base, which is a hallmark of this Belgian glassmaking period. Every facet of the geometric grid remains sharp, highlighting the superior molding techniques perfected by the Seraing crystal works over a century ago.

This set represents a unique opportunity to acquire a complete serving duo that is seldom seen together in such fine condition. Only some superficial scratches on the bottom of the under plate, commensurate with age. The clear, heavy glass possesses a wonderful transparency and the classic weight associated with authentic early 20th-century Belgian production.

It is a sophisticated addition for those who appreciate the intersection of utilitarian glassware and refined Art Deco aesthetics.

To ensure this historic treasure reaches you in perfect condition, the piece will be safely packaged using professional materials. Reliable shipping is included to provide peace of mind throughout the delivery process. Your new acquisition will be shipped fully insured to the winning bidder for a secure and worry-free arrival.
