This bowl is a piece from the Belgian manufacturer Val Saint Lambert, dating from the Art Deco era. It is the "Rosette" model, a 1935 creation that illustrates the crystal factory's craftsmanship. Made of selenium crystal, this piece has a subtle pinkish hue in natural light. Its particularity lies in its reactivity to ultraviolet light, under which it reveals an intense red-orange luminescence. The design combines a geometric faceted upper part with a lower band adorned with a pressed scroll motif, characteristic of the "Rosette" model. The general condition of this bowl is excellent, testifying to careful preservation over the decades. The piece has retained its clarity and structural integrity, without major alterations, making it a beautiful example of Val Saint Lambert's production from this period. With its asserted Art Deco aesthetic and its photoluminescent property, this bowl is a collector's item and a decorative piece with character. It can serve as a centerpiece or be displayed in a showcase where its double chromatic nature can be appreciated.
