High-Grade Amethyst Cathedral Geode
Located in Ametista Do Sul, BR
A Gorgeous, High-Grade Galaxy Amethyst Geode with Rare Inclusions ▫️ Description Magnificent, rare and colorful, this Amethyst Geode features a stunning multi-colored, deep purple Amethyst crystals on a perfectly cathedral shape geode. Imagine this geode enhancing your space, offering a calming energy. What first catches the eye in this geode is the variety and beauty of its Amethyst crystals. At the top, a sparkling purple galaxy druzy resembles a night sky, beautifully accented by elongated flower formations naturally filled with golden goethite inclusions—reminiscent of shooting comets. On the bottom half, a crown-like formation of large Amethyst points has uniquely taken shape. This rare formation is found in only a handful of mines, making this geode truly one-of-a-kind. Within and around this "crown," additional calcite crystals and smaller Amethyst points with unique inclusions further enhance the specimen’s beauty. Overall, this geode stands out not only for its vibrant banded agate but also for its exceptional variety of mineral inclusions, such as Goethite (Cacoxenite), Calcite, and other fascinating mineral formations. Perfectly sized at just over 21 inches tall and weighing 39 lbs, it’s ideal for display as a centerpiece or addition to your collection. The geode's base consists of a thin Basalt layer, securely reinforced to protect and showcase its intricate and delicate natural structure. Ethically sourced directly from Ametista do Sul, Brazil—renowned for producing some of the world's finest Amethyst—this specimen brings peace of mind along with exceptional beauty. This high-quality Amethyst geode is sure to become a treasured highlight in your collection or decor.

ODETTA QUIMPER Art Deco Stoneware Vase, 1920
By René Beauclair
Located in Saint-Amans-des-Cots, FR
A stunning French Art Deco stoneware vase by the renowned René Beauclair (1877-1960), produced at ODETTA, Faïencerie de la Grande Maison HB Quimper, France, ca.1920. The vase features the distinctive Shape #512 and is decorated with the rare and sought-after Decor #1321bis, which is a particularly limited design, making this piece all the more unique. With its elegant, geometric form and meticulously executed decoration, this vase exemplifies the sophistication of the Art Deco movement. Measuring 8.3" (21 cm) in height and 8.1" (20.5 cm) in diameter, this vase is in excellent condition, reflecting the exceptional craftsmanship of its maker. A remarkable and rare example of French Art Deco ceramic art, it would make an impressive addition to any collection. From 1903, Jules Verlingue, at the head of the Faïencerie de la Madeleine, in Boulogne-sur-Mer, produced stoneware. In December 1913, a fire destroyed part of the Faïencerie de la Madeleine. The factory being poorly insured, its owner was forced to sell to Boulogne banker Henri Delcourt. Jules Verlingue will remain director of his former establishment. The funds from the sale will be used by him, in association with Louis Delcourt, doctor of law and brother of Henri, to acquire, in 1914, the earthenware factory of his friend Guy de La Hubaudière, in Quimper. When the Faïencerie HB restarted in 1917, everything was refurbished and equipped. In 1923, under the impetus of Jeanne Malivel and René-Yves Creston, the “Ar Seiz Breur” (Seven Brothers) movement was born. This group of Breton creators aims to revive Celtic art. suffocated by classic taste, modernizing it and adapting it to everyday life. This period is extremely rich, encouraged of course by the antistical Art Nouveau and Art Deco movements. The HB Jules Verlingue and Bolloré factory is not lagging behind, thanks to the collaboration of the sculptor René Quillivic...

Antique and Vintage Decorative Objects for Sale: Find Vases, Bowls, Boxes and Clocks on 1stDibs

Every time you move into a house or an apartment — or endeavor to refresh the home you’ve lived in for years — life for that space begins anew. The right home accent, be it the simple placement of a decorative bowl on a shelf or a ceramic vase for fresh flowers, can transform an area from drab to spectacular. But with so many materials and items to choose from, it’s easy to get lost in the process. The key to styling with antique and vintage decorative objects is to work toward making a happy home that best reflects your personal style. 

Ceramics are a versatile addition to any home. If you’ve amassed an assortment of functional pottery over the years, think of your mugs and salad bowls as decorative objects, ideal for displaying in a glass cabinet. Vintage ceramic serveware can pop along white open shelving in your dining area, while large stoneware pitchers paired with woven baskets or quilts in an open cupboard can introduce a rustic farmhouse-style element to your den.

Translucent decorative boxes or bowls made of an acrylic plastic called Lucite — a game changer in furniture that’s easy to clean and lasts long — are modern accents that are neutral enough to dress up a coffee table or desktop without cluttering it. If you’re showcasing pieces from the past, a vintage jewelry box for displaying your treasures can spark conversation: Where is the jewelry box from? Is there a story behind it?

Abstract sculptures or an antique vessel for your home library can draw attention to your book collection and add narrative charm to the most appropriate of corners. There’s more than one way to style your bookcases, and decorative objects add a provocative dynamic. “I love magnifying glasses,” says Alex Assouline, global vice president of luxury publisher Assouline, of adding one’s cherished objects to a home library. “They are both useful and decorative. Objects really elevate libraries and can also make them more personal.”

To help with personalizing your space and truly making it your own, find an extraordinary collection of decorative objects on 1stDibs.
