Serene French Art Deco Cameo Art Glass Cabinet Vase, Continuous Willow Forest Scene Depicting Deer by Celebrated Legras & Cie Glassworks in Saint-Denis, France, Circa 1930

This magnificent French Art Deco ovoid cabinet vase is masterful example of fine art glass produced by the celebrated Legras & Cie glassworks in Saint-Denis, France. This exquisitely proportioned vessel stands at a versatile height of 6.75 inches with a stable 2.25-inch base diameter, making it an ideal size for premier gallery display. The continuous scenic body features a meticulously executed, multi-layered acid-etched cameo landscape depicting a stylized deer foraging beneath the sweeping canopy of a weeping willow tree in a serene forest clearing.
The vase is masterfully crafted by fusing a deep, mottled reddish-burgundy glass layer over a frosted, ice-like textured background. An artisan applied an acid-resistant pattern before submerging the piece, allowing the acid to eat away the exposed red layer and leave the intricate woodland silhouette raised in sharp relief. The authentic “Legras” signature is integrated directly into the design, raised in high relief on the body of the vase. The heavily textured, granular background brilliantly diffuses ambient light, creating dramatic visual depth that accentuates the rich, vitreous tones of the cameo layer.
This highly collectible piece serves as a timeless investment and a striking decorative statement for any connoisseur of European art glass.
Dimensions: base diameter 2.25″ x height 6.75″
