Vase c. 1845 - 1860

This small, blue and white glass vase, "Vase" by Compagnie de Saint Louis (c. 1845-1860), is a prime example of the intricate glasswork of 19th-century France. The swirling pattern of blue and white stripes creates a dynamic visual effect that draws the eye inward. This piece, now housed in the Art Institute of Chicago, is a testament to the skill and artistry of glassmakers in the 19th century. The use of bold colors and a geometric motif makes this an attractive and captivating work of art.
