AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

An exceptionally heavy, high-quality crystal crater vase (also referred to as a Médicis vase) crafted by the prestigious Belgian crystal manufacturer Val Saint Lambert, dating to the mid-20th century.

This specific piece is beautifully decorated with the intricate "Argos" cut pattern, showcasing a classic diamond-point texture along the upper rim and lower bulged body, paired elegantly with structural vertical column cuts along the waist.

Adding to its rarity and luxury appeal, this model is adorned with a gilded brass metal beaded trim (parelfries) securely fitted around the rim, giving it a prominent Hollywood Regency or Neoclassical flair. The upper body rests on a beautifully faceted stem that flows into a thick, geometric hexagonal pedestal base
