Description

  • Henri Bergé for Amalric Walter
  • Koi in Seaweed Vide-Poche
  • incised A. Walter Nancy/Bergé Sc
  • pâte-de-verre

Condition

Overall in good condition. When viewed in person, the vide-poche presents with more saturated colors than in the catalogue illustration, the bowl with richer yellow tones with nuances of intense blues and green. The pate de verre presents with some irregularities and air bubbles inherent in the making and not at all visually disruptive. The surface with a few minor surface scratches and light surface dirt consistent with age and gentle handling. A very nice piece with intense color and beautiful scale when viewed first hand.
