"Art Deco Carafe In Smoked Glass"
Very pretty wine carafe (not liquor!) in smoked glass, which we date from between 1930 and 1950. The few impurities from the blowing and the fineness of the materials make us lean towards a production from the Art Deco period (1930s) : certain DAUM models are strangely close to the model presented here. The inverted cone body is made of smooth smoked glass on the lower part and ends in beveled white glass on the upper part. The whole thing is topped with a four-lobed smoked glass stopper. All with a delicacy and finesse of execution worthy of the great glassmakers of eastern France (Daum / Gallé: see a similar model signed in our gallery) or the Czech Republic (Karlsbad Moser). The carafe is not signed, but we find the numbering of the decoration (13) on the cap and at the bottom of the carafe. In perfect condition except for a tiny chip on the lower part of the cap (invisible once the cap is embedded in the neck of the carafe). Dimensions: Height: 24.5 cm Height with cap: 31 cm Diameter at base: 11.5 cm Weight: 800 g.
