Val Saint Lambert, Luxval - Charles Graffart & René Delvenne - Vase - Versailles - Manganese - Art Deco

Superb Art Deco molded transparent glass vase, made by the Belgian crystal makers Val Saint Lambert and part of the Luxval line. The “Scales” model stands out for its elegant slightly flared silhouette and its raised geometric decoration, whose interlocking patterns evoke scales and give the whole piece remarkable visual depth.

The glasswork reveals a succession of carefully structured polygonal reliefs, alternating domed surfaces and facets that catch and diffract light. The piece still bears its original circular Luxval paper label, a particularly interesting testament to its commercial history. The signature “VAL ST LAMBERT BELGIUM” is also present beneath the base. The vase measures 16.3 cm in height with a maximum diameter of 12.2 cm and a base of 6.1 cm. Its weight is 650 grams.

The condition is exceptional, the vase presented in mint condition. It shows no notable defects and retains its original label, an additional element that reinforces its authenticity and heritage value.

This model fits into the history of Luxval production developed by Val Saint Lambert during the interwar period. This range of molded glass perfectly illustrates the meeting of industrial possibilities in glassmaking and the aesthetic explorations of Belgian Art Deco, which favored geometric forms, play of light, and richness of texture.
