AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Stunning and rare Art Deco-era candy jar in opalescent molded-pressed glass by the French master glassmaker Henri Saumont. This model is distinguished by its rich decoration of cabochons or beads in strong relief that beautifully catches the light with deep milky and bluish reflections. Heavy and complete model with its original domed lid. Perfect molded signature in relief in the mass: “SAUMONT FRANCE”, guaranteeing the authenticity and provenance of the piece
Henri SAUMONT: Active in the 1920s, Henri Saumont was a master glassmaker based in Nogent-l'Artaud (Aisne). He is known for his glass creations (vases, vanity flasks, powder boxes or candy jars in the Art Deco style often signed “Saumont France” or “H. Saumont”)
Note: slight chip on the upper inner rim
Happy bidding to all

Seller's Story

Passionate about flea markets, and antiques of all kinds since my childhood, I was already selling on this site as an individual, the joy and kindness of the buyers made me understand that it was the right time to get started in my small business, I pay particular attention to the lots offered in order to be able to satisfy you, all my objects benefit from a very light cleaning and no restoration so that you can judge for yourself their quality and condition, so good auction to all and see you soon I hope
