The bouquet rises from a clear lucite (crystal-clear acrylic) base that gives the arrangement a floating, modernist presence while letting the colorful flowers take center stage. Expertly made with attention to small, painterly details—petals, leaves and gilt highlights remain vivid—this object blends midcentury glamour with French-inspired romanticism. Ideal displayed on a console, bookshelf, or bedside table.

Condition
Good vintage condition. Enamel largely intact with minor surface wear to a few petals and light rubbing to gilt consistent with age. Lucite base is clear with only light surface scratches typical of vintage lucite—no cracks.
