VERIFIED SELLER; 100% POSITIVE RATINGS : BUY WITH PEACE OF MIND

SPARKLING LARGE & HEAVY PINK, GREEN AND TRANSPARENT GLASS VASE FROM MID 20TH CENTURY

ROYAL LEERDAM

Royal Leerdam Crystal, also known as Royal Leerdam, is the designing and glass blowing department of Dutch glassware producing factory, Glasfabriek Leerdam. The company was founded in 1765 and is famous all over the world for its high quality glass.

I imported this vase from Germany many moons ago and it was sold to me as Royal Leerdam, although I am regrettably not sufficiently knowledgeable to verify this information.

It is a solid and beautiful object, absolutely great on both functionality and looks.

PLEASE NOTE

Glass from the mid-20th century is vintage glassware and age related signs of wear such as small fine surface scratches/marks should be expected. The items are hand-made, they may have imperfections such as bubbles, inclusions and lumps within the glass. Tool marks from where they have been shaped and worked in the manufacturing process can often be seen. As this indicates authenticity and forms an inherent part of the character of handmade crystal glass, these are normally not considered as faults by collectors.

* The images provided form part of the description.

* This magnificent item is an original, hand-made art glass bowl, purported to be Royal Leerdam (and not Czech, Italian Murano, Daum, Kosta Boda, Orrefors, Swarovski, Flygfors, Val St Lambert, Whitefriars or Lalique studio glass).

* I personally sourced this beauty from Germany for my own, private collection many moons ago. Regrettably, with retirement on the horizon, I am now compelled to make space and I sincerely hope that it will bring its new owner much joy!
