Art Deco vase, crystal, Moser, Czechoslovakia, 1930s

A crystal vase in the Art Deco style, produced by the Moser manufactory in Karlovy Vary, Czechoslovakia in the 1930s. It is made entirely of hand-cut crystal, without additional decorations. Its form is based on geometric, architectural lines – a wide, stable base narrows upwards in two segments, separated by a delicate ring and topped with an octagonal neck. The faceted surfaces of the crystal, regularly arranged over the entire body, precisely refract light, emphasizing the deep shade of amber yellow. The high-gloss finish enhances the transparency and saturation of the colour, while the raw, clean form refers to the aesthetics of late Art Deco, focused on function and harmony of proportions. The surface remains smooth, with no scratches, cracks or signs of restoration; all elements are consistent and original. The vase is signed and preserved in very good condition – no visible signs of use or wear.
