FRANÇOIS-EMILE DÉCORCHEMONT | Vase

vers 1930 pâte-de-verre Stamped DECORCHEMONT on the base and numbered c367 on the underside

Good overall condition. The glass presents with some scattered light surface scratches and a few scratches. There are some minute to small irregularities scattered on the glass that appear to be inherent to the making. The base has most likely been reduced at some point at the history of the piece and the number on the underside has been added at the same time (it does correspond to the original number that should have appeared on the underside).
