    I like to expand the repertoire every once in a while so I brought home two Legras pieces while out and about today.

    The first one is kind of interesting because of the markings on the bottom which reads “Made in France Exclusively for Paris Decorators”. My research tells me that Paris Decorators' was the New York based distributor for Legras and other upscale French art glass houses. Stands 8.5" high

    The second piece stands 8” high with cranberry coloured floral design in relief on a frosted UV reactive ground.

      Oh Mac, these are stunning. The enamel work on the green vase is just beautiful. The other vase's enameling reminds me very much of Legras's 'Rubis' series vases, but the glass is a different base color. Very cool that it is so UV reactive!

      Thanks Sean and Michelle.

      I was looking at the Rubis series when I was researching and your right it is the closest I could find by way of decor. Spent about an hour this evening looking at images and have yet to find one with a yellow ground. If anyone finds one post to FB. Please and thank you.
