This ice bucket from the 1960s, attributed to the Belgian crystal manufacturer Val Saint Lambert, is crafted from high-quality clear crystal glass with a distinctive 'crackle' texture. This effect, emblematic of mid-century modern artistic glass, creates visual depth and a dynamic interplay of light across the surface. The piece is accented by a substantial, gold-plated brass rim and a handle, both highly polished to a mirror sheen. The brass handle’s precise curvature and spherical end joints reflect attentive craftsmanship and balanced design. Dominant tones include the transparency of the crystal glass and the refined gold accents. Dimensions: width 16 cm, height 14 cm, depth 12 cm. The whole piece maintains a restrained style typical of Belgian design from the 1960s. Condition: excellent, with no chips, scratches, or signs of tarnish on the metal elements. This object conjures the atmosphere of a refined 1960s lounge, where daily life intertwined with understated luxury. The glass, intersected by the geometric gold-plated brass bands, might recount evenings when light danced across its crackled surface and the cool clarity suggested a discreet freshness. Each detail—from the reflective rim to the sculptural, rounded end of the handle—whispers of an era that valued both functionality and noble form. The bucket 'remembers' the slow rituals of the cocktail hour, when the clinking of ice marked a quiet, deliberate celebration. It may be paired with a classic silver tray or a modern minimalist glass decanter, creating a contrast of textures and materials. The piece will sit well atop a living room console, alongside tall crystal highball
