Blue Cut And Engraved Crystal Egg With Imperial Motif, 20th Century

Elegant cobalt blue crystal object of ovoid form, resting on a circular foot.

The finely engraved decoration features a crowned double-headed eagle framed by a laurel wreath, accompanied by geometric and vegetal motifs. The composition draws on an imperial visual language, rendered with clarity and balance.

A particularly interesting feature is the presence of a polished reserve acting as a true optical lens, capturing and transforming the perception of the engraved motif on the opposite side. This subtle interaction between engraving and volume introduces an almost kinetic dimension, revealing the design differently depending on the viewing angle.

The crystal is of very good quality, with a deep and luminous color that responds beautifully to light.
