A refined glimpse into the glamour of 1920s France, this vase is a statement of style, history, and craftsmanship. Small enough to grace a tabletop yet bold in presence, it offers a touch of Art Deco elegance to any curated space. Whether for a collector or a lover of French design, this piece invites admiration.
Made by Le Verre Français between 1922 and 1927, the vase features the celebrated “Digitale” (foxglove) pattern. Stylized floral forms in deep red and pink bloom across a frosted clear ground, all acid-etched in layered cameo glass. The vase stands approximately 6.5 inches tall with a gracefully tapered form and bears the signature “Le Verre Français” on the foot.
The base bears original tooling marks from production, a testament to its hand-crafted origin. These suggest it was a studio piece never offered through retail channels, possibly retained by a worker, yet unmistakably authentic and signed. The base shows original tooling marks from production, not post-production damage.
