Description from the seller

Elegant marbleized glass vase with acid-etched decor, signed Legras, French work from the Art Nouveau period (circa 1900-1915).
The vase features a stunning decoration of vine leaves and bunches of grapes in shades of olive green and violet, arranged on a frosted and speckled background, typical of Legras productions.
The glass, with a marbled and frosted appearance, reveals a very refined play of texture and transparency.
The acid-etched technique highlights the vegetal motifs embedded in the material.
Engraved signature Legras at the bottom of the decor.
Very good overall condition, a few minor signs of use consistent with age, no chips or cracks.
