AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This lot consists of four decorative stylized swan sculptures made of blown glass by the Belgian manufacturer Val Saint Lambert, dating from the second half of the twentieth century. The pieces come in several distinct color harmonies created by inserting colored pigments into the translucent glass core: the first subject features deep pink inclusions, the second incorporates shades of blue, the third combines a clear structure with green and purple highlights near its base, while the fourth blends marbled hues of blue and fuchsia within its glass body. The green-toned model retains a partially legible original factory paper label on its side, whereas the other three figures do not bear any remaining labels or engraved signatures on their bases, which is standard for these decorative art objects. The measurements of the green piece stand at 24 cm in height, 5.5 cm in width, and 12 cm in depth, with an individual weight of 480 g. The fourth marbled blue and pink swan measures 15 cm in height, 5 cm in width, and 11 cm in depth, with an individual weight of 300 g. The other two swans each measure 21 cm in height, 5 cm in width, and 10 cm in depth, with a unit weight of 400 g, bringing the total weight of the set to 1580 g on the scale. All four pieces are in very good condition, with the blown glass showing no chips, cracks, or flea bites along the slender stretched necks or the pointed tails. Shipping is exclusively reserved for mainland European Union member countries, and no delivery can be provided to island destinations or overseas territories.
