Elegant vintage French hand-cut crystal centerpiece bowl by the prestigious Cristallerie de Saint-Louis.

Crafted from substantial clear crystal, the bowl features a striking geometric hand-cut decoration composed of large intersecting diamond and faceted motifs. The underside is beautifully finished with a deeply cut radiating starburst, creating remarkable reflections when viewed through the bowl.

The generous proportions and substantial crystal give the piece a strong decorative presence, while the precision of the cutting produces the brilliance and optical effects for which Saint-Louis crystal is renowned.

The bowl retains its original black “Saint Louis – Cristal – France” label.

An identical example with the same dimensions and cut decoration has been documented on the French antiques market, confirming this as a Saint-Louis production.

The piece presents very well, with only light surface traces and fine scratches consistent with age and normal use. Please refer to the detailed photographs, which form an integral part of the description.

A sophisticated decorative object that may be used as a centerpiece, fruit bowl, presentation bowl or simply displayed as a fine example of French crystal craftsmanship.
