This early 20th-century Belgian Art Nouveau uranium glass vase is defined by its delicate elongated silhouette, with a broad foot gradually tapering into a slender neck – a shape that highlights the inherent lightness of the material. The translucent, pale green hue typical of uranium glass lends a subtle luminosity that shifts with the ambient lighting. The vase’s surface is smooth and carries a soft, satin-like gloss, serving as a foundation for the gilded bronze (ormolu) overlays. The ornately designed botanical ornamentation – flowing stems, leaves, and blossoming flowers – is rendered with textural intricacy, and the bronze’s warm gold tone, softened by a gentle patina, adds to the sense of age and authenticity. The fluid lines and organic forms express the Art Nouveau spirit, shaped by a reverence for nature and artisanal technique. The seamless union of glass and bronze reflects the elevated craftsmanship of its era. The vase is preserved in very good condition, with the glass free from chips or cracks and only minor age-appropriate marks to the bronze, indicating careful use over time.This vase communicates a narrative from the turn of the century – an era fascinated by nature, light, and the potentials of handcraft. The turquoise-green glass appears to glow softly even in gentle shade, recalling the lingering radiance of the Belle Époque. The ormolu ornamentation weaves across its surface like wandering vines, suggesting a creation born
