The catalogue illustrates the same model and shape, with a closely related floral decoration executed in the same technique, confirming both authenticity and attribution. Variations in decorative details are typical for this type of production.

This piece perfectly reflects the design language of the era: a refined, balanced form combined with stylised floral motifs characteristic of Art Deco aesthetics.

Crafted in deep black hyalite glass, the vase achieves its rich, opaque appearance through slightly thicker glass — a characteristic feature of this type of production, as additional thickness was required to maintain the intense dark tone.

The decoration is executed using the cold enamel technique, a delicate method widely used during the Art Deco period. The softly matte floral motifs, enhanced with subtle gilded tones and fine linear elements, create a striking contrast against the glossy black surface.

As is typical for pieces made using this technique, the decoration is fragile and may show minor wear. Small imperfections, light surface marks and gentle rubbing to the enamel are present, which is entirely normal for an object of this age and production method.

Considering it is nearly 100 years old, the vase remains in good and honest vintage condition.

A beautiful and authentic example of Belgian Art Deco glass, equally suited as a decorative statement piece or as part of a refined collection.



Scailmont glass ( Verreries de Scailmont) in Belgium, is renowned for its exquisite Art Deco and Art Nouveau designs. Founded by Henri-Raphaël Hirsch, (who had established the “Saint-Laurent Glassworks” a few years earlier) in 1901 in Manage, the factory specialized in molded and satin-finished glassware, featuring intricate etching, enameling, and sandblasting techniques. Collaborations with renowned designers such as Henri Heemskerk and Charles Catteau brought international acclaim, particularly after the 1925 Paris Exposition.

Scailmont’s products, including vases and tableware, were often marked with the factory’s name or designer signatures, making them highly collectible. The company also partnered with brands like Boch Frères and Val-Saint-Lambert

Despite industry challenges, Scailmont remained a key player in Belgium’s glass industry until it merged with Durobor in 1976 and ceased operations in 2000. Today, Scailmont glass is prized for its elegant designs and fine craftsmanship.
