Large "Faceted Cube" Art Glass Vase – Cognac Colored Glass with Applied Frosted Cubes
Be captivated by the graphic elegance and sculptural presence of this large glass vase, an exceptional work of glass art with unique size and decoration. Available in a chromatic variation of magnetic intensity inspired by the warm shades of amber and cognac, this art object features a singular cylindrical profile, inherited from modernist aesthetics and brutalist architecture. Crafted entirely by master glassmakers, each piece plays on a striking contrast of textures and light to boldly adorn any space.
Visual Impact: Chic and Contrasting Geometric Graphics
The glassmaker's work excels in the art of translating architectural motifs, interplay of shadows and light onto bold three-dimensional volumes.
The Nuanced Variation: Based on a refined cylindrical silhouette inherited from modernist design, this vase stands out for its exceptional texture work. Its cognac/amber colored glass surface, both warm, translucent and luminous, serves as a backdrop for a remarkable geometric composition: a multitude of frosted glass cubes (frosted/satin effect) are arranged in relief around its entire circumference.
This play of textures creates a fascinating alternation between smooth brilliance.
The Play of Proportions: The main body, with a rigorous cylindrical profile subtly flaring towards the top, offers a perfect expressive surface for the enameling work. The integration of asymmetrical dark drips graphically responds to the purity of the white base. This minimalist and refined structure highlights the burst of color lines and enhances floral art by accommodating generous bouquets with graphic stems.
Features
Unique Artisan Craftsmanship: Each vase demonstrates great glassmaking expertise, characterized by the sharpness of volumes and the richness of applied pigments. The handwritten signature and engraved monogram under the unglazed base validate its authenticity as a gallery piece.
Double-Sided & Panoramic Piece: The decoration wraps around the entire vase. The piece thus reinvents itself from every angle depending on the light, revealing new drips and allowing you to change the visual ambiance of your room with a simple gesture.
Collector's Spirit: Possessing its own visual identity and author's signature, this vase establishes itself as a work of art in its own right. Its strong presence invites association with noble materials (precious wood, marble, brass) to create a fascinating artistic dialogue.

💡 The Gallerist's Style Tip
"This vase is a pure marvel for playing with natural light. To maximize its visual impact, absolutely avoid placing it in a dark corner. Instead, display it near a window, on a walnut sideboard or a minimalist console, so that the sun's rays pass through the cognac-colored glass and make the frosted cubes sparkle. For the botanical touch, keep it simple: a few dried flower stems or a simple eucalyptus branch will highlight its geometry without obscuring its unique engraving work. It also stands alone as a true glass sculpture."
