French vintage art glass bird dish bowl art vannes crystal clear glass mid century vintage mcm sculp

This is a really striking art glass bird dish which is beautifully observed and would make a stunning table centrepiece. In icy crystal clear french glass. Easily striking enough for a stand alone sculptural piece, but it could be used for a pretty flower arrangement or as somewhere to keep bon bons or loose change. It looks particularly good near a window where the sunlight can catch it. There is a slight lilac tone to the glass, which is more pronounced in the photos but definitely shows in the right light. It is not labelled but this is entirely accurate to a popular art vannes design and I am sure this is right. But please see all photos and be sure it is as you would expect before purchase. A highly attractive decorators piece; a stylised bird, which would be an ideal gift for any art glass collector particularly if they love french and/or clear glass. It might even be the perfect prop for your theatre or tv production. Approx measurements: Length - 32 cm / 12½ in. Max width - 13 cm / 5 in. Max weight - 9 cm / 3½ in. In excellent vintage condition; with no chips, cracks or even rough edges. There are some very light scuffs on the base. Please see all photos and remember it is at least 50 years old and is pre-owned and pre-loved.
