A substantial vintage hand-cut lead crystal vase, most likely Bohemian or Central European, dating to approximately the 1960s–1980s.
The vase features a richly worked geometric cutting pattern with large pinwheel and fan motifs, deep intersecting V-shaped wedge cuts, cross-hatched diamond details, and a finely cut rim. The underside is finished with a classic radiating starburst cut, designed to catch and refract light through the heavy crystal walls.
Its cylindrical form gives the piece a clean, architectural profile, while the dense hand-cut decoration creates exceptional sparkle from every angle. At 1,243 grams, the vase has an impressively substantial feel for its size and is consistent with traditional heavy lead-crystal production.
A beautiful decorative piece for a dining table, console, mantel, or bar, equally attractive displayed empty or filled with flowers.
