Marie Claude Lalique - Pair of "Tanzania" Zebras vases

A lalique black moulded glass tanzania zebra vase, etched lalique, france 174, modern
Inspired by the elaborate techniques of her grandfather, Marie-Claude Lalique has created a long, slender-necked vase in black crystal. This creation re-introduces for the first time in over 50 years two techniques from the 1920s; mouth-blown glass decorated with hand-painted color enameling. The sophistication of the hand-finishing renders the object as precious as a jewel. The effects of the fine satin-finishing upon the exotic foliage that crowns the Tanzania in black crystal are such that the leaves seem to overreach the central frieze of the vase, where crystal zebras gallop about. Delicate white enameling highlights each zebra, bringing them to life with a vibrant power of movement that surprises and delights the viewer.Hauteur : 21 cm
