Mid Century Modern Handblown Sculptural Translucent Bowl by Art Vannes
Mid Century Modern Handblown Sculptural Translucent Bowl by Art Vannes
This dramatic and sculptural bowl was realized by the fabled French glass making studio- Art Vannes- circa 1950. It features raised sides and open ends with curvilinear forms throughout lending it the appearance of flowing silk fabric. With its graphic, graceful aesthetic, this piece would be a winning addition in any interior space. While it is a perfectly utilitarian object- ideal for presenting any number of items including flowers floating in water or candy- it is also a work of art in its own right that would be stunning atop an etagere or occasional table. It is signed "Vannes Cristal" on the bottom and is in excellent condition.
