This stunning Art Deco ornamental glass rod cachepot dating to circa 1940, is a beautiful example of the clean lines and geometric sophistication characteristic of the Art Deco period. This piece, designed to hold and style flowers or serve as a sculptural accent, combines striking materials and a meticulous architectural design to stunning effect.

The glass rods are horizontally arranged and intersect at precise right angles, forming a visually captivating stacked grid pattern. The perfection of this configuration gives the piece a remarkable structural form, evoking the attention to balance and proportion that defined Art Deco design. The rods are held together by delicately woven wire, which introduces an artisanal, hand-crafted touch and a dynamic energy, underscoring the human element behind the design.

At the heart of the piece lies the interior basin, crafted from square frosted glass. This basin rests within the encasement of the stacked glass rods, its frosted texture providing a visual contrast to the transparency of the rods. This balance of clear and frosted elements heightens the visual appeal of the piece and showcases the thoughtful use of materials.

While highly functional as a pot for holding flowers, this American Art Deco piece also stands alone as a remarkable sculptural object. Perfect for a dining table, console, or mantle, it adds a touch of the 1940s' glamour and modernity to any space. An ideal choice for collectors or admirers of refined and innovative Art Deco design.
