This vase in the shop Like Antiques in Belgrano St. Córdoba, since it was open till the clerk man in charge died two month ago, suddenly of lung cancer (heavy smoker), it was a surprised for everybody because Jorge was a nice person. This vase was unaffordable at its original price and when the owner came to take over the shop He understood quickly that the only person in Córdoba that could buy it were us. It is a very strange piece so dark and bright, so art deco without any straight line. Searching for its origin I was able to trace that most probably it is Belgium Scailmont since the only vases with this mark are indicated as that and some as don by Henri Heemskerk for Scailmont

Does anyone knowledge about Celta and Scailmont? Although I know belgium is not French art glass perhaps it is French since it was sold to me as French.
