Louis LELOUP (Belgium, born 1929). Elongated satin-finish crystal vase with a narrow neck highlighted by a bead of purple-tone graphic inlays. Signed under the base. Length : 38 cm - Width : 7 cm Note: Louis Leloup uses a rare two-rod technique to manipulate molten crystal, enabling him to play on the superimposition and fusion of layers, creating unique depth and color effects. His distinctive style has earned him worldwide recognition and numerous exhibitions across the globe. In 1997, a museum dedicated exclusively to his work was inaugurated in Kyoto, Japan.
