This glass vase, designed by Thomas Bastide for Baccarat in 1998, is a striking example of modern glass design. Titled "Texture of the Sky," the vase stands out due to its sculptural form and the way the material captures the light.
Crafted from clear crystal glass, the object displays an intriguing texture reminiscent of cloudy skies or rippling water. The asymmetrical, fan-shaped contours and thick glass walls give the piece a robust yet elegant appearance. The designer's signature and the year are subtly engraved into the glass, confirming the authenticity of this Baccarat design.
The vase is in excellent condition, without visible defects, and retains its original clarity and luster. The craftsmanship of the French crystal manufacturer is clearly visible in the finish of the rims and the clarity of the material.
This sculptural object comes into its own in a modern or minimalist interior. It can serve as a standalone work of art on a sideboard or coffee table, or be used to display an understated floral arrangement.
