Belgian clear crystal vase “VSL - Tenier”
Belgian clear crystal vase “VSL - Tenier”
Definition.
This vase was made in the middle of the 20th century in Belgium.
It is made of mouth-blown clear crystal. During the finishing, part of the crystal is then cut away so that beautiful geometric figures are created. These, in turn, give a nice sparkle in the light.
The name of the vase is Tenier
Val Saint Lambert uses high lead crystal. This means that at least 33% lead oxide (PbO) is used, more than the statutory 24%. This greatly benefits the quality: The crystal can be processed finer, the degree of brilliance is a lot greater and the crystal is clearer than ever.
This is an absolute masterpiece in terms of glassware and crystal.

Given its age, a small trace of wear may be present, as well as glass threads, air bubbles and imperfections are completely normal for handmade vintage glassware.
