Sculptural bowl in solid cobalt blue crystal, 1960s.

A true character piece from the 1960s-1970s, this sculptural bowl made of solid blown crystal captivates with its organic lines and the depth of its cobalt blue. Made using the sommerso technique (a colored core enveloped in a thick layer of transparent crystal), it features four elongated and hot-stretched points that gently fold inward. Its flat-cut square base ensures excellent stability while highlighting the quality of its artisanal craftsmanship, in the spirit of productions from the Manufacture de Bayel or the Cristallerie du Val Saint-Lambert. With its beautiful density (nearly 1.5 kg) and changing reflections depending on the daylight, it will naturally find its place as a centerpiece, on a vintage sideboard, or as a focal point in a Mid-Century glass collection.
