AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
August Walther & Söhne – “Diana” Cloud Glass Vase – Catalogue No. 31460 – Germany – Art Deco period (circa 1932–1940)
Large and elegant German Art Deco cloud glass vase from the renowned manufacturer August Walther & Söhne, attributed to the “Diana” pattern, catalogue model 31460.
This model corresponds closely to documented Walther catalogues from the 1930s:
* Pattern name: Diana
* Catalogue number: 31460
* Height: 28 cm
* Production period: approximately 1932–1940
The vase is executed in beautiful sepia cloud glass (“Oralit” / “Cloud Glass”), characterized by flowing smoky inclusions suspended within the glass mass. Under UV light the vase shows a distinct manganese reaction, supporting an early 20th century production period.
The form is highly characteristic of German Art Deco design:
* elegant flared rim,
* tapered faceted body,
* sculptural footed base,
* warm sepia coloration with internal feathered decoration.
The vase remains highly decorative both in daylight and under ultraviolet light.
A very collectible example of documented German cloud glass from the Art Deco era.
Condition
Good vintage condition with age-related wear and minor traces of use consistent with age.
No major cracks detected.
Please study the photographs carefully as they form part of the description.
Dimensions
* Height: approx. 28 cm
Notes

* “Diana”
