C.S.T.S. Czechoslovakia - 虹吸瓶 藝術裝飾 - 蓝色铀玻璃

Elegant Art Déco molded and internally twisted glass siphon, made of blue ouraline glass and intended for P. Harribey, at Saugnac-et-Muret (Landes). Its cylindrical silhouette with rounded shoulders and its twisted decor give it a characteristic aesthetic of Art Déco period productions.

The bottle, manufactured in Czechoslovakia, presents a remarkable turquoise blue tint and strong bright green fluorescence under ultraviolet light at 395 nm, characteristic of uranium presence in the glass. It bears an acid-etched inscription indicating “P. HARRIBEY SAUGNAC ET MURET (LANDES)”. Under the base is also the mention “CARAFE FABRIQUÉE EN TCHÉCOSLOVAQUIE”, accompanied by a logo representing a hot air balloon containing the letters “CSTS”, a trademark found on other Czechoslovak productions destined for the French market.

The tin mechanism is particularly interesting: it bears the inscriptions “P. HARRIBEY – SAUGNAC & MURET” as well as “G. GONZALES & Cie – COGNAC”, attesting to its attribution to this Cognac establishment. The whole is also marked “1934” and “ÉTAIN SANS PLOMB”, allowing a precise dating of this piece in the interwar period.

The piece is in very good overall condition. The glass retains excellent transparency and remarkable fluorescence. Signs of use are visible inside the bottle, mainly at the base. A small chip is also noted on the lower part of the annular foot, as well as a small area with a few worn spots just beside it, on the same face. These defects are clearly visible in the photographs and do not affect the overall presentation of the piece.

An original piece combining Czechoslovakian ouraline glass, French commercial destination, and tin mount dated 1934, particularly interesting for collectors of old siphons, Art Déco glassware and uranium glass.
