AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Little, but big! Art Deco Cobalt Blue Overlaid Crystal Faceted Vase – Carl Meltzer & Co., Haida, Bohemia, ca. 1915-1920

Striking Art Deco/Wiener Werkstätte geometric style, featuring heavy horizontal tiered prism facets on a hexagonal column body. Intricately hand-cut radial starburst pattern (star-cut base), covering the entire hexagonal underside.

Modernist/Cubist influences, highly reminiscent of Josef Hoffmann’s architectural glass designs.

Excellent transparency with vibrant, deep cobalt blue hues and no internal cloudiness/sickness.
Condition is very good vintage. No chips and cracks, no restorations. Tiny and insignificant traces of time and use. Small imperfections inside the glass - production related.

Approximate dimensions: Height: ca. 10 cm. Width: ca. 5 x 5 cm. Weight: 281 g.
