Pair of French Two-Handed Gilt-Metal Cobalt-Blue and Clear Crystal Faceted Vases
About the Item
A pair of French gilt-metal clear crystal vases with cobalt-blue overlay from the mid-20th century. Each piece presents a waisted body over a swollen base atop a short baluster-shaped connector resting on a square pedestal. A beautiful cobalt-blue overlay covers the vases, faceted away to reveal the clear crystal beneath. Two gilt-metal scrolling foliate handles join the equally gilt everted lip, embossed with an egg-and-dart frieze, to the waisted upper part of the vase. The square clear crystal base is adorned with a cut star pattern and framed within an embossed socle resting on paw feet. This pair of French two-handed gilt-metal clear crystal vases from the mid-20th century, with their cobalt-blue overlay amazingly enhanced by the gilt metal decoration and elegant waisted shape, could be a fabulous addition to a collection, placed prominently on each end of a sideboard or a mantlepiece.
