AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Stupendous vase by Josef Inwald for Barolac, smoked glass produced in Czechoslovakia in the 1930s, original Art Deco.
A vase in smoked Czech artistic glass, magnificently frosted, refined and enchanting in its simplicity.
This exceptional work is beautifully decorated with a floral style that floats among cherry leaves and fruits.
The realistic ensemble wonderfully evokes summer; the idea of nature is that of open air, the reliefs present a magnificent range of shades in contact with light as well as a wonderful tactile element, the light passing through the shapes illuminates the smoked glass with a soft inner glow and accentuates the lines and details of the design.
The delightful scene covers the entire vase as it flows gracefully around its form with a dynamic sense of rhythm.
In perfect condition with no breakage or damage.
Dimensions are: height 22.3 cm, upper base diameter 15 cm and lower base diameter 9 cm.
Careful worldwide shipping with UPS, DHL or FedEx courier.
