AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

A remarkable early 20th-century crystal carafe attributed to Saint-Louis, adorned with the celebrated Givre Floral décor. The design features delicately frosted floral motifs complemented by elegant gilded ribbons and trailing garlands reminiscent of classical wreaths, gracefully cascading along the body. This refined ornamentation evokes the sophistication and artistry of the Belle Époque, making it a standout piece for any discerning collector of historic French crystal.
The carafe is preserved in excellent antique condition, exhibiting no chips, with only minor signs of age natural patina that enhances its authenticity and charm. The original stopper is not present; however, the accompanying lid fits harmoniously, respecting the flacon’s proportions and silhouette.
Included with this lot is a facsimile page from the 1908 Saint-Louis catalogue, illustrating a variety of toilette objects, vases, and carafes, providing historical context and confirming the exquisite lineage of this design.
