Large vase by Argy Rousseau in pâte de cristal. The material he uses here is thicker and heavier than the pâte de verre. The glass is also more transparent and unlike the pâte de verre the colour is not only on the outside but also through the glass. The pure beauty of the material plays a major role in the design. The vase is calle Hieroglyphs, and is a reference for the Egyptian writings. He used the image of this vase for advertising, which shows his satisfaction over this piece of art.
