AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Magnificent and rare wall-mounted glassware in ouraline, Art Deco, 1920-1830.

Sculpted in the shape of a scallop shell, it features fluted and stylized lines typical of the Art Deco period, offering striking relief and a highly decorative appearance.

In daylight, it captivates with its elegant green, translucent, satin finish, which catches the light softly. When exposed to ultraviolet rays (black light), the magic happens: the high uranium content in the glass reveals a luminous fluorescence of an intense and hypnotic green.

Height: 20 cm
Width: 25 cm
Depth: 7 cm

In good overall condition, small nicks on the right corner.

Whether to restore an antique luminaire or to add a unique cabinet-of-curiosities touch to a contemporary interior, this piece will elevate your decor.
