"Versailles Saint Louis Vase "
Saint Louis Versailles vase in crystal, Medici shape. Height: 25 cm Ø at the collar: 20 cm Weight: 4kg160 In superb condition, clear crystal, no scratches, beautiful shine. For those who are more picky, I will point out a micro chip at one angle (pinhead) which is barely visible. Signed on the reverse with the stamp of the Saint Louis crystal factory. The weight may vary on these vases. This one is very heavy and therefore very stable. The Versailles vase, an emblematic model from the Saint Louis crystal factory, was created in 1921, inspired by the basins adorning the park of Versailles. It can be found in the Saint Louis catalog of 1930. Its creation is a technical feat by master glassmakers, which requires 7 to 8 weeks of work. For an exceptional result. With its decoration of flat dimensions and diamond points, it is a masterpiece in itself, a timeless and essential decorative element. For information, this vase at the Saint Louis boutique is priced at €2,250 new.
