The tall, flared form is richly decorated with deeply engraved geometric and botanical motifs—fan palm bursts, star patterns, and crisscross latticework—all executed with precision to reveal the clear crystal beneath the rich cobalt overlay.
The rim is scalloped and vertically cut for added texture and visual drama, while the footed base displays a radiant starburst pattern. Each section of the vase is expertly hand-cut, reflecting light with brilliance and clarity. Though the body remains in vibrant, showy condition, one area of the rim displays visible chipping, as seen in the close-up photos.
Despite the noted wear and a small lip chip, this vase retains its impressive presence and makes a brilliant centerpiece or collector’s display item. A vibrant example of traditional Czech glass artistry with a bold color palette and sparkling detail.
