About the Item

A stunning work of modernist glass artistry, this hand-blown vase by Ada Loumani showcases a distinctive Picasso-inspired motif, seamlessly blending fine craftsmanship with artistic expression. Created in France circa 1980, this unique piece reflects Loumani's pioneering technique of embedding artistic visuals within blown glass, resulting in a design that feels both ethereal and sculptural. The vase’s signature Picasso motif evokes the abstract and avant-garde elements of Cubist art, paying homage to one of the 20th century’s most influential artists. The embedded imagery is intricately fused within transparent glass, giving the piece a three-dimensional feel as light interacts with the artwork, adding depth and vibrancy. Loumani’s innovative manipulation of blown glass elevates the traditional craft into the realm of modern art. The fluid, organic shape of the vase highlights the hand-blown craftsmanship, with soft curves and clean lines that enhance its modernist aesthetic. It is signed by Ada Loumani, underscoring its authenticity and the artist's renowned reputation in contemporary glassmaking. Loumani's work is celebrated for its ability to merge functionality with fine art, making this vase not only a decorative object but also a collectible piece of artistry. Ideal for display as a centerpiece in living spaces, galleries, or collections, this vase adds a touch of refined creativity to its surroundings. A testament to Loumani’s mastery and his nod to Picasso’s timeless influence, this piece bridges design, art, and craftsmanship in a way that captivates both art enthusiasts and design collectors. Signed on the undersurface by the artist, this vase is in Excellent Vintage Condition. France, Circa 1980 Dimensions: Height: 16.5" x Width: 12" x Depth: 4"
