AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

An iconic and rare Belgian Art Deco pressed glass vase, model 'Egmont' (Catalog number 94), designed in 1935 by Charles Graffart and René Delvenne for the famous Luxval collection of Val Saint-Lambert.

This specific example is rendered in a highly sought-after and elegant amethyst/bordeaux purple color. What makes this vase extra special and decorative are the characteristic gilded (gold-colored) horizontal bands on the corners, which beautifully contrast with the geometric star motifs and matte textures in the glass.

The vase features the partially preserved, original Luxval factory sticker.

Manufacturer: Val Saint Lambert (Belgium)
Series: Luxval collection (Catalog 1935)
Model: Egmont (Pièces Diverses No. 94)
Designers: Charles Graffart & René Delvenne
Period: Circa 1935 (Art Deco)
Material: Pressed half-crystal (Demi-cristal)
Color: Amethyst / Bordeaux purple with gold gilding
Height: Approx. 18 cm
Condition: In excellent vintage condition with light aging signs (minimal wear to the gilding and light scuff marks on the underside, inherent to its age).
The presence of small air bubbles or glass threads is entirely normal for this type of artisanal pressed glass from the 1930s. Photos are an integral part of the description.

Will be packed with utmost care and shipped worldwide with track & trace. Also available for pickup or home delivery for a fee, by arrangement.
