Small blown glass vase from the old maure vieil glassworks the production of the "verriers de maure-vieil" focused mainly on glass paste and work with stratified mineral textures, as close as possible to its direct environment. The intriguing history of the glassworks fully contributes to the charm of the pieces that come from it. Located on a natural cirque surrounded by wild nature, in the middle of the caldera (south of france), maure vieil is made up of: • a chapel with modernist and extroverted architecture • but also a new age fitness center. • to which is added the maure-vieil glassworks. The verrerie de maure vieux was built in the 60s. It closed its doors in the 90s, leaving a building disused since that day. The vase itself is in very good condition, no cracks or chips produced in the 60s/70s, this piece is mainly composed of black, with beige and orange marbling. The latter resembles lava stains metaphorically recalling the furnace of its creation process. This also recalls the mineral marbling specific to the work of master glassmaker bob le bleis. The object has a lower part of the shards that are not. This is a nose texture during the development of the piece. The maure vieil stamp (intertwined m and v) is sealed under the glassware. High quality craftsmanship. Superb piece I also have a collection of 7 pieces from the maure vieille workshops. These pieces are visible in my other ads dimensions: height 12cm opening diameter 4cm hand delivery or shipping with careful packaging.
