Product Description
This striking signed Charles Schneider jade glass vase, dating to the 1920s, stands an impressive 25cm high and embodies the bold elegance of the French Art Deco movement. Known for his innovative use of colour and form, Schneider created highly decorative art glass that bridged artistic expression and modern design.
The vase features a softly mottled jade-toned ground infused with painterly swathes of pink, plum, and inky violet, creating a dynamic, almost abstract surface. The rounded, generous form enhances the depth of colour, while the sculptural black feet provide strong visual contrast and anchor the piece with architectural presence. The interplay between fluid organic patterning and structured base is characteristic of the transitional design language of the 1920s.
Signed examples by Charles Schneider remain highly regarded among collectors of French Art Deco glass. At 25cm tall, this is a substantial statement piece, ideally suited for display on a console, sideboard, or as a centrepiece in a curated interior where its colour and scale can be fully appreciated.
If This Piece Could Talk
It would recall the glamour of 1920s Paris, jazz drifting through open windows, and a world embracing modernity with confidence and style.
