£8,500
The vibrantly coloured ruby red fluted body, beautifully complements the faceted sphere and shimmering ormolu base, making this vase a stunning decorative piece.
Manufactured in 20th century France, this stunning ormolu (gilt bronze) and cut glass vase is a demonstration of the highest quality craftsmanship.
The beautifully crafted, fluted body of the vase is made from cut and coloured glass. Crystal white detailing shines through the bright ruby red glass, highlighting the superb design. The tulip neck terminates in a gilt bronze border decorated with egg and dart motifs.
The red and white fluted body stands atop an intricately faceted sphere. The white colouring of the sphere creates an eye-catching division between the vibrant red body and shining ormolu base.
Egg and dart, foliage and beading motifs are carefully cast on the gilt bronze base on which the vase stands.
The vase is a superb decorative piece, which can be further adorned with a floral arrangement.
