ART DECO EGGSHELL AND GILT VASE
(Circa 1925-30)

Made by Boch in Saarland, Germany, this checkered-motif vase in gold leaf and eggshell epitomizes the simplicity and elegance of Art Deco style. Once owned by German professor and architect Herman Billing, the vase was inspired by the work of noted Art Deco designer Jean Dunand, who often used crushed eggshells and lacquer finish on furniture and accessories. Simple white Callalilies set off the vase and are typical of the period. Art Deco vase, $2,900, at Anne Hauck Art Deco, West Hollywood
