French 20th Century Pair of Alabaster Vases with Sculpted Floral Motifs
A pair of sculptural French alabaster vases in the grand classical tradition, each rising in a stately silhouette of creamy white stone rendered luminous by the mineral's characteristic translucency. Produced in 20th-century France, where the carving of alabaster remained a refined atelier craft, these vases demonstrate the enduring appeal of Neoclassical form carried forward with exacting workmanship.
Each vase presents a beautifully composed profile: a fluted column body ascending from a stepped circular base to a wide, petal-like rim that opens like a flower in full bloom. Sculpted floral relief ornaments the upper body and shoulder, lending tactile richness to the smooth stone. The matched pair displays the soft, naturally occurring grain and subtle warmth of tone inherent to fine alabaster — no two pieces ever entirely alike. Whether flanking a fireplace, anchoring a console, or displayed on a mantel as a formal accent, they bring an undeniable air of classical French refinement to any setting.
Dimensions: 6.75" Diameter × 16.25"H each.
