AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Magnificent, heavy, hand-cut double-crystal (cristal doublé) vase from the prestigious Belgian crystal house Val Saint Lambert. This iconic design is later known in sales catalogs as the Aberdeen model, but this particular masterpiece still bears on the inside the extremely rare original paper factory tag with the internal model name "ATEN" and the designation "P.U. 20120" (Pièce Unique / Unique Piece). This label proves that the vase was hand-finished or inspected in the factory prior to commercial sale.
The vase is executed in a deep, intense ruby-red top layer, which a master glass cutter has geometrically carved away to reveal clear crystal. The top features large, smooth olive cuts (windows) and rests on a richly cut diamond- and diamond-pattern at the base.
Specifications & Features:
Manufacturer: Val Saint Lambert (Belgium)
Model / Decor: ATEN (Aberdeen)
Period: 1950s - 1960s
Height: 23.5 cm
The vase is in pristine condition. Not a single chip, fleabite, limescale, or hidden flaw. The crystal is beautifully clear.
Markings: On the underside, the hand-engraved signature "Val St Lambert", the original gold foil shop sticker "Val St Lambert Belgique - Déposé", and the rare paper factory tag beneath the gold foil shop sticker, visible from the inside on the bottom.
