Val Saint Lambert - Blue Overlay Crystal Footed Vase

Description

Belgium, circa 1950–1970

This footed blue overlay crystal vase reflects the refined craftsmanship of Val Saint Lambert.

Its slender silhouette unfolds in a balanced composition: a stable transparent base, a structured body with vertical lines, and a gently flared rim.

The decoration, cut through the blue overlay layer, reveals soft, almost organic shapes that expose the clear crystal beneath. Light enters, fragments, and subtly animates the piece from every angle.

Presence & Use

With its vertical structure and refined proportions, this vase lends itself beautifully to minimalist floral arrangements.

A single branch, a long-stem flower, or a few carefully placed elements are enough to highlight its balance. It can also stand alone as a sculptural object.

HaruFuyu Spirit

A line rising, steady and clear.
Blue settles within it like a quiet breath, between matter and light.

Nothing is excess.
Everything is in place.
