Vintage Polished Neoclassical Green Onyx Vase – Mid-Century Modern Elegance
A sculptural gem in green onyx, this vintage vase embodies a timeless synthesis of nature and craftsmanship. Hand-carved from a single block of semi-translucent onyx, its classical silhouette and mineral veining evoke a sense of quiet luxury—ideal for interiors that favor both restraint and drama.
The luminous surface—ranging from pale pistachio to honeyed amber, accented with soft ivory bands—makes this vase a striking yet neutral centrepiece. Whether displayed as a standalone object or paired with other natural materials like brass, wood, or glass, it adds immediate refinement and tactile depth.
