Immerse your space in the timeless elegance of the Art Deco era with this stunning opalescent glass piece, strongly characteristic of the renowned French glassmaker Ezan. This versatile item, likely designed as a "vasque" or ceiling light shade bowl, could also serve as a magnificent centrepiece bowl.
It showcases a beautiful milky to ethereal blue opalescence that glows under light, particularly vibrant along its distinctive rims. The body features a classic Art Deco moulded diamond quilted (or "pointes de diamant") pattern. What truly sets it apart are the heavily textured, almost icicle-like ("glaçon") or beaded details on both the outer rim and the inner collar surrounding the central aperture. This central hole would have originally accommodated light fittings, allowing it to be used as a striking plafonnier.
Style & Provenance: Unsigned, which is common for many Ezan productions (which often relied on paper labels), but the design, material, and manufacturing style are strongly indicative of French Art Deco glass from the 1930s.
Potential Uses: An exceptional candidate for restoring to its original function as a ceiling light, or it can be creatively repurposed or displayed as a standalone decorative bowl. Its captivating opalescence and intricate texture make it a true statement piece for any Art Deco enthusiast or collector of vintage glass.
Condition: Excellent vintage condition. The opalescent glass is vibrant and free from significant chips or cracks, based on the images. The detailed patterns and textured rims appear crisp. Please examine photographs carefully as they are integral to the description.
