Description from the seller
This decorative piece, inspired by alchemy and typical of the first half of the 20th century, blends the solidity of aged brass with the delicacy of handcrafted glass. The metal framework, with its fluted column and U-shaped base, showcases the characteristic style of old laboratory stands, those that evoke cabinets of curiosities and experiments by the light of oil lamps. From the adjustable arm hangs a hand-blown glass bottle, slightly irregular, transparent and luminous, preserving the charm of objects made with traditional techniques. The piece is topped with a solid glass stopper that fits precisely, as if meant to safeguard essences, reagents, or small liquid mysteries. The work conveys a fusion of ancient science and fantasy, a object that seems to have emerged from a halted alchemical laboratory and that today serves as a decorative item full of character and personality.
