AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Superb and authentic Art Nouveau era vase (circa 1900) in blown glass with amber color throughout, produced by the famous François-Théodore Legras & Cie manufactory in Saint-Denis. This iconic model, though unsigned, but numbered, is referenced as “Lavallière” in contemporary glass catalogs as well as in the book Théodore LEGRAS by Marie-Françoise & Jean-François Michel, Manufacture d'Histoires Deux-Ponts décors "Forme LAVALLIERE" page 278 reference 0782. It is characterized by a domed base with regular ribs and a widely flared neck, animated by gadroons and hotly festooned by the master glassmaker with a hand-forged edge. The piece features a magnificent enamel and hand-painted decoration representing a bouquet of field daisies in white and pink, enhanced by small blue forget-me-nots and greenery. The base of the bouquet is elegantly encircled by a blue enamel ribbon, a motif highly sought after by the Legras house. Under the smooth base lies the molded number 4, corresponding to the technical mold number used in the workshop during blowing. Non-signed (as is the case with the vast majority of Legras folk-art productions in this range, but form and décors perfectly cataloged and authenticated).
Sublime piece of rare beauty; don’t miss this auction. With the End-of-Year holidays approaching, start thinking about your gifts now, or simply treat yourself.
Happy bidding to all.
