Antique crystal sugar bowl “Val Saint Lambert”
Antique crystal sugar bowl “Val Saint Lambert”
Definition.
The sugar bowl is made at the beginning of the 20th century in Belgium, by the famous crystal factory “Val Saint Lambert” under the artist “Hubert Fouarge”
This rare bowl with handles is mouth blown from clear crystal. During the finish, part of the crystal is then cut away so that beautiful geometric figures appear. These, in turn, give a beautiful sparkle in the light.
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 antique glassware.
