AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

An Art Deco hand-cut crystal faceted decahedron graduated tiered design vase designed by the iconic architect and designer Josef Hoffmann for the prestigious Ludwig Moser glassworks in Karlovy Vary (Karlsbad). The deep, precise geometric prism facets create stunning reflections, catching and refracting ambient light beautifully. Crafted from thick, high-clarity crystal and it's a masterclass in early 20th-century Bohemian modernist design.
Overall, in excellent vintage condition. The crystal retains its brilliant appearance and is of high clarity. No major cracks, deep scratches or structural repairs; only visible scratches on the bottom contact surface and just a few micro-chips visible in the last four photographs.
