ABOUT PRODUCTID 13822
This early 20th-century Art Nouveau vase, inspired by Viennese Secessionist motifs, is crafted from pressed glass and pewter. The tall, trumpet-shaped silhouette rises from three elegantly curved, plant-like legs, echoing the organic language distinctive to Art Nouveau. The transparent, slightly cool-grey glass body features a pronounced honeycomb texture that beautifully refracts light, lending the vase a gentle shimmer. Its scalloped, undulating rim enhances the impression of fluidity, harmonizing with the overall design. The pewter base and stem display a satin-matte silver finish, seamlessly blending into the decorative, sinuous legs. The vase bears no visible damage—there are no chips or cracks—with only a subtle patina and minor signs of age on the metal, befitting its era. Presented without signs of restoration, it remains an authentic, very well-preserved example of French decorative craftsmanship circa 1900.The sensuous curves and organic character of this vase echo an era in which nature entered the home, blurring the boundaries between art and daily life. As light moves through its cool glass body, the honeycomb relief casts playful highlights, while the flowing pewter details narrate the quiet opulence of the turn of the century. The piece seems to tell of an age when everyday items aspired to the status of art—when even a vase became a canvas for the artisan’s imagination.This vase lends itself to display on a wooden console or beside mirrors in Art Nouveau frames, highlighting its period origins. It may serve as a subtle accent in historically furnished interiors, and just as effectively as a decorative counterpoint within minimalist settings. It pairs well with single stems or tall grasses, their slender forms drawing attention to the undulating rim. The vase is equally at home in a classic living room or
