This striking vase features bold geometric decoration in frosted green cameo glass, contrasted against a colorless, sandblasted background. The dynamic interplay of matte and translucent surfaces showcases Guérin’s masterful control of texture and light, hallmarks of his celebrated Art Deco style. Sharp lines and crisp contours enhance its sculptural presence, revealing new visual dimensions from every angle.

Degué was the signature of Guerin’s Cristallerie de Compiègne, a workshop he founded in response to the success of contemporaries like Daum and Gallé. A key figure in the Art Deco glass movement, Guerin combined innovative sandblasting techniques with a bold, architectural style that gave his work a distinctive edge. His pieces are now prized for their sculptural forms and exceptional craftsmanship, hallmarks that are clearly evident in this vase.
