This is one of my latest finds, I loved the overall effect of the pressed glass body, triangles which form a pleasing display in a geometric form, yet still elegant.
The vase or container is 6x6 inches, no mark or label, with much wear signs on the base. It's a short version of this design, they made many of these wide short decorative glass pieces as well as taller ones in the 9 inches range.
I spent several hours looking at Val St. Lambert glass later today and found they were most likely to be the producer. Very interesting company of long duration, with much documentation, a collector's dream come true.
Then I found a post of the same glass piece stating it was made under the brand Luxval, in 1930, for the occasion of the Liege International Exhibition. It was shown in the 1933 Luxval catalog.
