ABOUT PRODUCTID 20182
This crystal paperweight, shaped as a high-heeled shoe, was crafted in the 1930s by the renowned Czechoslovakian glassworks Ludwig Moser & Sohne. It is made from high-quality faceted crystal glass in a cool lilac shade, featuring a subtle gradient that transitions from intense color at the pointed toe to nearly colorless, transparent glass at the heel and sole. The surface is highly polished to a mirror-like gloss, and the geometric flat cuts evoke the precision and rigor of Art Deco aesthetics. Measuring 9.5 cm in height, 14.5 cm in length, and 4 cm in width, the shoe’s streamlined form and sharply defined edges showcase the craftsmanship typical of Moser. There are no visible signs of damage or wear—its preservation is very good, with no need for restoration.This diminutive object carries the voice of its era, when Art Deco fused luxury with modern form. The crystal shoe recalls the light-filled salons and elegant offices of the interwar period, where objects were chosen not only for their function but as emblems of refinement and progress. The slim silhouette and lilac hue hint at the playful spirit of the 1930s, while the pointed toe and geometric facets speak of a fascination with precision, symmetry, and the play of light. Each glance at the paperweight evokes the quiet whisper of an age where function and ornament spoke in harmony.The crystal shoe may be placed on a desk in a study or living room, where it will naturally complement other collectible objects from the 1920s and 1930s. It would work well in an Art Deco-inspired interior alongside chrome accents, geometric clocks, or minimalist lamps in
