Description: Andr Hunebelle Glass Vase - The Art Deco design known as "Prism", France circa 1928, the milky white glass polished and satin finished, this being the largest of the two sizes created. Andr Hunebelle first studied mathematics at the cole polytechnique in Palaiseau (which were interrupted by the First World War, in which Hunebelle was temporarily drafted as a soldier). Around 1925 he found himself interested in the glass making business and in 1927 he exhibited his works for the first time at the Salon des Artistes Dcorateurs where he immediately attracted attention. Very quickly his glass forms became what we now call Art Deco or the Modernist style. Hunebelles designs were manufactured by the Choisy-le-Roi crystal factory where the molds were designed and shaped by Etienne Franckhauser (an artist also working for Lalique and Sabino). The sculptor-designer Roger Cognville also co-signed many of the designs (as in the example I am offering for sale). Glass production ceased abruptly in 1938 and by 1941 Hunebelle had moved into film production and then became a film director. Please note, The base of this vase has had a hole drilled in it. There are a few air bubbles in the glass from manufacturing. A height of 8 inches and a width of 9.
