Product description
This antique French glass 'Vase Boule' is an authentic design by the renowned glass artist François-Théodore Legras, produced between 1900 and 1920. The piece embodies the essence of early twentieth-century glass art and stands out for its organic, spherical silhouette and the maker's distinctive signature. Crafted from frosted glass, the vase displays a complex, cloudy gradient in which shades of pink, purple, and deep red blend seamlessly. This technique, typical of the French Art Nouveau period, lends the object a painterly appearance. The signature 'Legras' is subtly engraved into the glass surface, confirming the authenticity and historical value of this collector's item. Considering its age of over a century, this object is in remarkably beautiful condition. The glass has fully retained its original frosted finish and deep color intensity, featuring an authentic patina that underscores the piece's historical character. This refined art object makes a valuable addition to a collection of antique glassware or a classic interior. Placed on a sideboard or in a display cabinet, the natural light catches the warm tones of the glass, making it a subtle yet striking focal point in the room.
