A heavy crystal oval glass vase originates from the 1930 Art Deco period. The clear lead crystal piece displays detailed craftsmanship with extensive diamond facet cutting covering the body, a wheel-engraved floral cartouche within an oval panel on the side, a heavily scalloped rim with fine teeth, and a starburst pattern cut into the circular pedestal foot. The object stands 20 cm high, measures 25 cm wide, and has a depth of 20 cm. This decorative vessel suits placement on a dining room sideboard top or a living room display table. Inside a modern home, the transparent glass holds seasonal floral arrangements or serves as a standalone ornamental centrepiece that reflects light from surrounding surfaces through its complex geometric and botanical cuttings.

FAQs

English lead crystal developed significantly in the late seventeenth century after George Ravenscroft introduced lead oxide to glass formulas. By the early twentieth century, manufacturers such as Thomas Webb & Sons produced high-clarity vessel designs featuring deep geometric cutting combined with fine copper-wheel engraving.

Lead crystal is created by fusing silica with lead oxide, which increases the density and refractive index of the glass. Craftspeople shape the molten glass before using rotating abrasive wheels to cut deep geometric facets, followed by fine wheel-engraving for decorative motifs like foliage or cartouches.

Authentic pieces from this period frequently feature acid-etched maker marks on the base, such as Webb ENGLAND. Authentic high-lead crystal is notable for its substantial weight, clear resonance when tapped gently, precise polished cuts, and high optical clarity.

A cut crystal vase functions well as a central accent on a dining table, sideboard, or mantelpiece. Placing the object near natural light sources highlights the refractive qualities of the cut facets without cluttering the surrounding decorative scheme.

Hand wash lead crystal in lukewarm water using mild detergent and a soft sponge. Avoid dishwashers and extreme temperature changes, which cause clouding or thermal shock, and dry immediately with a lint-free cloth to prevent water spots.
