About the Item

A pair of superb and unusual Art Deco-style cut rock crystal urns. Each urn is crafted from a single piece of rock crystal, carefully cut and polished to reveal the natural inclusions and veining of the stone. The bowls are deep and rounded, with straight rims, and are raised on short stems that transition into square plinth supports. The bases are composed of stepped rectangular sections, providing stability and balance to the overall structure. The transparency of the crystal, along with its internal fissures and mineral formations, lends a distinctive character to each urn. The urns are crafted entirely from rock crystal, a material highly prized for its clarity and durability. The cutting is executed with precision, evident in the sharp edges of the plinth and the symmetrical shaping of the bowls. Their construction reflects the geometric and streamlined qualities often associated with the Art Deco style, with the stepped bases serving as a structural and decorative element. No additional mounts, metals, or embellishments are applied, leaving the focus on the purity of the material and its natural crystalline qualities. These urns are representative of Art Deco style adaptations in hardstone objects, where natural materials were worked into clean architectural forms. Rock crystal has long been used in the decorative arts, particularly in the early 20th century, when workshops specialized in transforming raw minerals into refined decorative pieces. The combination of deep bowls, squared supports, and tiered bases reflects design principles common to the period. This pair belongs to a tradition of lapidary work in which geometric shaping and minimalism defined the stylistic character of objects intended for interior display.
