AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Art Deco vase/lamp base by Oréor, a brand name of the Brussels firm Van Haeleweyck Frères, founded in 1855 and still existing in 1929. Their address was 63-69 Rue du Vautour (Gierstraat), Brussels. A recovered invoice adds to the name "Lusterie - Van Haelesweyck Frs - Pendules" also 'Verrerie d'eclairage' (Glass lighting).
Given the nature of the firm, these designs (primarily) seem intended for use as table lamp bases. It is not clear where VH had their lamp bases manufactured. Details suggest that Scailmont, Sars, Hunebelle and Muller Freres (among others) could have carried out such a commission. For more information see: https://www.hogelandshoeve.be/index433.html
So far, 6 models/molds have been found, and they were likely available in black, light amber (honey), light blue, cobalt blue, sea green, uranium green and light purple. This light pink version adds a new color to the well-known spectrum.
The vase is in good used condition with normal to minor signs of aging. Small enclosed glass bubbles and glass threads are common for the production process of the time. Mass-marked with the Oréor logo (see photo). The "Oréor" hallmark sits on the side of the mold (not the base!) and is written in script.
Height is about 17.5 cm, diameter 19 cm.
Photos are part of the description. Carefully packaged, insured and shipped with a tracking code to your home. We do not ship outside the EU and to (e)lands with a special customs status.
