ABOUT PRODUCTID 13708
This pair of pressed glass vases exemplifies late modernist French design from the 1980s. Each piece features a tall, rectangular silhouette with subtly faceted sides and bold vertical relief patterns, mimicking the effect of flowing liquid glass. The vivid, deep red hue transitions seamlessly into a smoky, near-black base, creating a dramatic ombre effect that enhances their architectural presence and draws in light, which the glossy surface reflects with an almost mirror-like intensity. The pronounced texture, crisp edges, and substantial weight attest to skilled craftsmanship and an intentional embrace of the geometric language characteristic of the era. Condition is very good—with no visible chips, scratches, or signs of wear; the relief details remain sharp and untouched.These vases evoke a period when color and material were not only decorative, but expressive. Their form seems to echo the confidence and theatricality of the 1980s—saturated color and geometric clarity serving as a statement of modernity. The red glass catches and scatters light, casting vibrant reflections, while the vertical texture guides the eye upward, reminiscent of architectural pilasters.As a pair, they can be set on a minimalist light wood or lacquered black console to highlight their depth of color. They would work well alongside other modernist or mid-century objects, or with singular, graphic greenery. The tall, rhythmic profile invites placement in either a collector’s living room or a stark, contemporary arrangement.
