AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Superb vase in solid clear crystal, attributed to the Cristallerie de Vannes, remarkable for its organic silhouette and spectacular corolla-shaped rim with elongated tips.

The piece stands out for its particularly elegant glasswork: thick walls, vertical ribs, sculptural volumes, and deep plays of light, giving the vase a presence that is both refined and monumental. The crystal captures light with great intensity, revealing subtle effects of transparency and refraction.

The form, typical of French glass design from the second half of the 20th century, directly evokes the organic creations of Vannes-le-Châtel, where crystal was shaped into a truly decorative, sculptural object.

A circular signature was once present on the underside of the base, but has now been largely erased by time and use. The attribution to the Cristallerie de Vannes is based on the form, the quality of the crystal, and the piece’s manufacturing characteristics.

A very fine-quality vase, ideal as a centerpiece on a console table or dining table, or as part of a collection of 20th-century French glassware.

It is 21 cm high, 14 cm wide at the top, and has a base width of 10 cm.
Total weight: 1.3 kg.

Carefully packed and dispatched promptly, with home delivery.
