AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Crafted in richly coloured emerald-green glass, this refined vase is beautifully decorated with finely hand-applied enamel depicting delicate thistles, a symbolic Art Nouveau motif celebrating the beauty of nature. The graceful silhouette and luminous translucent glass exemplify the exceptional artistry and innovation for which Legras et Cie became renowned during the Belle Époque.
The vase remains in very good antique condition. As expected for an authentic piece of this age, there is some light wear and minor rubbing to the enamel decoration, consistent with careful use and more than a century of history, while preserving its remarkable decorative appeal.
A sophisticated and highly decorative example of French Art Nouveau glass, ideal for collectors of Legras, Belle Époque decorative arts, or as an elegant statement piece in a refined interior.
Height — 25.7 cm
