AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Antique Empire Style Gilt-Mounted Cut Crystal vase /Urn centerpiece.
This exquisite footed urn is a masterclass in 19th-century craftsmanship, combining the clarity of hand-cut lead crystal with the opulence of Empire-style metalwork. The piece features a sophisticated "diamond-point" and "fan" cut pattern that creates a brilliant play of light, anchored by a substantial, star-cut square plinth base.
Highlights & Features
Design: Classic Medici-urn silhouette with a flared rim and a complex multifaceted body.
Gilt Accents: The rim is finished with a finely chased gilt-metal band featuring a delicate neoclassical engine-turned (guilloché) pattern.
Craftsmanship: Heavy, high-quality lead crystal with deep, crisp hand-cutting.
Visual Impact: The contrast between the architectural square base and the radiant circular rim makes it a commanding centerpiece for any table or mantel.
Estimated Age: Second half of 19th Century .
Producer: Unmarked; Probably Baccarat, Saint-Louis, or high-end Bohemian glassworks of the period. Or early production of one of this manufacturers .( Early examples were mostly without marks)
Dimensions: Height: 24 cm
Diameter: 21 cm
Base: 11.5 cm x 11.5 cm
Weight: 3,086 grams (approx. 3.09 kg).
Condition: Very Good antique condition. The crystal remains vibrant and clear. The gilt-metal rim shows minor, authentic age wear at certain points, consistent with its history and adding to its antique character. No chip or crack.
Your item will be carefully packaged and shipped with full track and trace for your peace of mind; local pickup is also warmly welcomed in Ekeren (Antwerp), Belgium.
