A masterclass in interwar European design, this exceptional piece features a heavy glass body dipped in a brilliant gold bath and masterfully sand-engraved with bold, deep geometric cutouts. The stark visual contrast between the luxurious, shimmering gilded surface and the matte black, architectural sandblasted panels creates a powerful, high-contrast dialogue between light and shadow. True to the principles of the Union des Artistes Modernes (UAM), this vase eschews fussy ornamentation in favor of clean abstraction, mechanical precision, and harmonious form.

Perfect as a dramatic tabletop center point or a highly prized addition to a curated mid-century modern aesthetic, this investment-grade collectible embodies the sophisticated glamour of Parisian high-modernism. See less
