Description from the seller
Czechoslovakia, 8-Piece Liquor Set on Tray, Art Deco, Attributed to Libochovice, ca. 1930
This rare, eight-piece Art Deco liquor set in luminous sky-blue pressed glass is a textbook example of Czechoslovak modernism. The ensemble, comprising a sculptural decanter, six matching cordial glasses and an imposing geometric tray, features bold relief decoration that refracts the light in a fabulous way. Its architectural construction and the mathematical precision of the pattern testify to the superior craftsmanship for which the Libochovice glassworks was renowned during the interwar period.
With its vivid color and clean lines, this set makes a sophisticated statement piece on a silver tray or in a well-lit display cabinet. The object complements both an authentic Art Deco interior and a modern Mid-Century decor, adding a cool, luxurious accent of color to the room.
An exceptional opportunity for the discerning collector to acquire a complete, intact set that perfectly preserves the avant-garde spirit of the 1930s.
