Vintage ART DECO Signed VERLYS Frosted Crystal BABY BIRD Fan Vase, FRANCE.
The unusual fan-shaped vase is made of substantial clear crystal with a soft frosted finish across the broad body. A pair of molded lovebirds nestles together above an intricately patterned base of sweeping leaves and berries. The birds and decorative relief remain clear against the satin-frosted background, creating a wonderful dimensional effect.
The underside of the base is hand-etched “Verlys” in script, as shown in the photographs. This etched signature and the dimensions/form correspond to known examples attributed to Verlys of America.
Verlys was known for high-quality pressed art glass inspired by the elegant French Art Deco tradition, particularly designs featuring birds, flowers and other naturalistic motifs.
Approximately 4 1/4" High, 6 1/2" Wide
Condition is very nice for its age, with normal light vintage surface wear. Please review all photographs carefully for exact condition.
A beautiful example of 1930s–1940s Art Deco glass and an appealing piece for collectors of Verlys, frosted crystal, bird décor or vintage American art glass.
