Vintage French Red Fossil Marble Vase

$650.00

A French marble vase from the 20th century, carved from richly figured red fossil marble.

The form is classically proportioned, with a gently flared rim, rounded shoulders, and a tapered body rising from a simple pedestal foot. Its silhouette is restrained and balanced, allowing the natural movement of the marble to become the defining feature. Swirls of deep crimson, warm terracotta, and pale fossil inclusions create a surface that feels both geological and painterly, making each angle reveal a different composition.

Rather than relying on decoration, the vase draws its character from material and craftsmanship. The polished finish brings depth to the stone, highlighting its intricate veining and organic patterning while lending the piece a sense of permanence.

DIMENSIONS: 6.5"W x 6.5"D x 9.75"H

ORIGIN: France

PERIOD: 20th Century

MATERIALS: Marble

CONDITION: Excellent vintage condition with light surface wear, consistent with age and use.
