Description from the seller

This exquisite Val Saint Lambert crystal piece from the Valambert collection is a stunning example of timeless craftsmanship and elegance. Featuring intricate cut and pressed patterns, it was originally designed as a centrepiece frame but also serves as a sophisticated floral holder, as shown in this arrangement with fresh roses.

A perfect blend of historical craftsmanship and modern elegance, this piece can elevate any table setting while showcasing the brilliance of Val Saint Lambert crystal. Whether used decoratively, as a floral centerpiece, or simply admired for its refined design, it is a valuable addition to an existing collection or a perfect reason to start collecting.

The Valambert series includes a wide variety of pieces — from elegant tableware to vanity items — and this centerpiece comes in several versions with different shapes and sizes.

All the elements are designed to complement each other beautifully, making this an ideal starting point for a collection, or a perfect way to expand one you already cherish.

In very good condition, with only a couple of very minor imperfections visible in the photos. The original label is also still present.


Val Saint Lambert, nestled in Seraing near Liège, Belgium, is a beacon of crystal craftsmanship with a legacy spanning nearly two centuries. Established in 1826 by chemist François Kemlin and engineer Auguste Lelièvre, the company transformed the remnants of the Val-Saint-Lambert Abbey into a thriving glassworks.

The 19th century marked a period of significant growth for Val Saint Lambert. By the early 1900s, the company employed over 5,000 workers, producing 120,000 pieces of glass daily. Their creations, renowned for exceptional quality and intricate designs, found admirers worldwide, including in Tsarist Russia and North America. A testament to their artistry is the “Vase of the Nine Provinces,” a monumental piece over 2 meters tall and weighing 200 kilograms, crafted for the 1894 World Exhibition in Antwerp.

The 20th century brought challenges, including the impacts of two World Wars and economic downturns. Despite these obstacles, Val Saint Lambert’s resilience ensured the preservation of its artisanal heritage. Today, the company seamlessly blends traditional craftsmanship with contemporary design, producing exquisite crystal pieces that cater to modern aesthetics.

Val Saint Lambert stands as a symbol of Belgian craftsmanship, where each piece reflects a harmonious blend of history, artistry, and innovation.
