AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Incised amber glass lidded vase – Art Deco style
Elegant amber-colored glass vase with lid, characterized by a refined Art Deco-inspired design that blends geometric lines, symmetry, and decorative refinement.
The form is highlighted by a faceted base supporting a flared-profile bowl, completed by a lid with an octagonal knob, also faceted, which gives the piece a pleasant play of light and reflections.
The honey-amber tone of the glass adds warmth and brightness, highlighting the material's transparency.
The entire surface is adorned with an elegant etched and satinized decoration composed of stylized leaf and small flower motifs, alternated with amber-colored bands arranged in a radiating pattern. This design, typically Deco, recalls the 1930s taste for essential forms and nature-inspired geometric motifs reinterpreted in a modern key.
Versatile and decorative, this vase can be used as a bonbonnière, a chocolate holder, a centerpiece, or simply as an ornamental element. Thanks to its timeless elegance, it fits perfectly in classic settings as well as in rooms furnished in vintage or modernist style.
A piece of great charm, ideal for collectors of antique glass and for those who appreciate 20th-century design, capable of combining functionality, craftsmanship, and a refined aesthetic that never goes out of fashion.
Seller's Story
My name is Riccardo. I recently graduated in Art History from the University of Florence and I am passionate about porcelain. From tableware to artistic vases, from figurines to tea and coffee sets, I am fascinated by the mastery and creativity of great artisans and designers who manage to shape this fragile material, transforming a rough mass into masterpieces with a story to tell. During my years at university I began to become interested in the history of nineteenth- and twentieth-century tableware; today, every day, I deal with prestigious porcelain pieces that always have something to say to me and to those who purchase them. I love that every day I can discover more about the objects I find while traveling around Italy, always learning something new. I always try to convey to my clients this passion I have for the objects I sell, certain that each of them has a story to tell: that of the creator, that of the one who preserved it, and that of the person who will give it a new life.
