This lead crystal vase dates from the 1930 Art Deco period and is made from ruby red overlay glass that has been cut back to clear glass. The flared cylindrical body displays a prominent geometric diamond-cut grid, circular pattern cuttings within the panels, and a scalloped rim, combined with an unusual cut base. Additional visual details visible on the piece include multifaceted bevelled cuts across the surface and deep textural faceting that creates high-contrast highlights against the dark red body. The object measures 20 cm high and is suitable for display on a sideboard top in a living room, dining room or hallway.

Art Deco overlay cut glass refers to decorative glassware created during the 1920s and 1930s using a cased glass technique, where a thin layer of coloured glass is fused over clear lead crystal and subsequently cut away to reveal geometric patterns.

Ruby cut-to-clear crystal is produced by dipping a gather of clear molten crystal into a layer of red-coloured glass before blowing the vessel into shape. Once cooled, lapidary artisans use abrasive wheels to carve geometric facets through the red outer casing to expose the clear layer beneath.

Authentic pieces typically exhibit high structural weight, high refractive index, polished wheel-cut geometric edges rather than moulded seams, and may feature etched maker marks or acid-stamped signatures near the base.

Position the vase in locations with direct or accent lighting, such as a sideboard top, mantelpiece, or deep window sill, allowing ambient light to pass through the clear cutouts and highlight the rich ruby tones against neutral backdrops.

Wash the item by hand using lukewarm water, a non-abrasive sponge, and mild detergent. Avoid dishwasher usage, sudden temperature shifts, and harsh chemical cleaners to prevent clouding or thermal shock fracture.
