Luxe Engraved Crystal Vase with Black Crystal Base – Clear or Amber
Standing 37.5 cm high, the Luxe Crystal Vase has the vertical presence required of a substantial decorative object. It is offered in Clear and Amber, allowing the same design to be experienced through either transparency or warm colour.
The surface is covered by a dense weave of vertical and horizontal engravings. Created by master engravers, this ordered grid divides the crystal into an extensive series of precisely defined facets.
Parallel prisms emerge where the engraved lines intersect. They collect light from different directions, draw it into the body of the vase and concentrate the resulting reflections towards its lower section.
A precious black crystal base provides the visual endpoint for this optical movement. The dark material intensifies the surrounding brightness, producing a luminescent cascade above the foundation.
The vase is proportioned for fresh flowers but retains a complete decorative identity when displayed empty. It can therefore function as a flower vase, standalone accent or statement centerpiece within a refined interior.
Luxe belongs to the Brilliance catalogue of handcrafted Italian crystalware, alongside trays, bowls, centerpieces, tea sets and carafes for the home.
From a distance, Luxe is defined by its height and colour. At closer range, the engraved grid reveals a more intricate structure composed of countless reflective planes. The design achieves its impact through the repetition and precision of its cuts, allowing surrounding light to become part of the object’s appearance.
THE ARTISTRY OF MATERIALS
Pure crystal with 24% PbO gives the vase the brilliance and optical density needed to sustain its complex prism effect. Clear crystal produces direct, colourless reflections, while Amber filters them through a warmer tone.
Black crystal introduces depth at the base and sharpens the contrast with the illuminated body. The three material expressions remain visually distinct while belonging to one composition.
EXCLUSIVITY & HERITAGE
The engraved weave is completed by specialist hands, with the spacing and alignment of every line determining the final optical result. This precision reflects the experience of Italian master engravers rather than surface decoration alone.
This piece is crafted in Italy by Mario Cioni and presented as part of the G.P.Grant Crystal Selection. It may bear the original Mario Cioni maker’s mark.
Its value is grounded in recognisable authorship, demanding manual execution and the transformation of functional crystalware into a distinctive interior object.
