Signed “Sabino France,” the mark denotes it was intended for export during the interwar period. The vase exemplifies early Sabino production, noted for its “soft and soapy” or “waxy” translucence, a result of arsenic used in the original pre-WWII glass formula. This unique texture and subtle glow distinguish authentic early Sabino from post-war reproductions.

Marius-Ernest Sabino, a classically trained sculptor, founded Sabino Glassworks in Paris, where he combined fine artistry with technical innovation. His pieces stand alongside those of Lalique and Etling in defining the Art Deco glass movement.

A collector’s piece of true sophistication, perfect for Art Deco, French glass, or early 20th-century design connoisseurs.
