AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

French Mid-Century Sculptural Crystal Vase – Organic Freeform Form – Clear Heavy Crystal – c. 1960s–1970s

Striking sculptural crystal vase in clear, heavy glass, with a dramatic freeform silhouette typical of high-quality European decorative glass from the mid-20th century.

The vase is built around a powerful organic composition: a broad, asymmetrical flared rim rises above a dense, sculpted lower body with fluid folds and deep optical refractions. Seen from above, the opening forms an almost floral four-pointed shape, while the front and side profiles reveal sweeping vertical lines and a substantial architectural base.

The result is a highly decorative object with strong visual presence, equally suited to a modernist interior, a curated design collection, or as a standalone sculptural accent.

The vase is unmarked. Its form and workmanship are consistent with the French mid-century sculptural crystal tradition, including designs associated with makers such as Vannes-le-Châtel, but no firm maker attribution is made in the absence of a visible signature or label.

Material: clear crystal / heavy decorative glass
Style: Mid-century modern / organic modernism
Estimated period: c. 1960s–1970s
Origin: Europe, likely France
Condition: Very good vintage condition. The vase has been personally inspected and shows no chips, cracks, hairlines or structural damage. The rims are smooth. Only very mild surface scratches consistent with normal cleaning and age are present.
Dimensions: approx. 24 cm high, approx. 23 cm wide at the mouth, approx. 14 cm deep.

The vase will be carefully packed for safe shipment.
