Art Vannes France - Grand Sculptural Vase "Free Form" - Solid Crystal - Mid-Century Design (1950-60) DESCRIPTION: Superb and heavy crystal vase, an iconic creation from the famous crystal factory of Vannes-le-Châtel (Art Vannes France), dating from the 1950s-1960s. This vase is a magnificent example of crystal work in "free form". Its fluid and twisted lines evoke the movement of a flame or the blooming of a flower. The base is solid and gracefully widens towards the neck. The quality of the crystal is exceptional: great clarity, beautiful brilliance, and above all, remarkable density. Weighing over 2.2 kg, it is a true luminous sculpture that captures and refracts light spectacularly thanks to its relief facets. A timeless design piece, typical of mid-20th century French elegance.
