Antique Cut Crystal Cornucopia Vase with Floral Finial

This antique cut crystal cornucopia vase is both a work of art and a symbol of abundance. The horn-shaped body sparkles with finely executed diamond-cut facets, tapering gracefully to a silver-toned mount. At its crown, the stopper blooms into an intricate openwork floral medallion, a detail that feels like a blossom forever preserved in light.

The cornucopia, or “horn of plenty,” has roots in Greek and Roman mythology, where it symbolized prosperity, nourishment, and good fortune. By the 19th century, this form was reimagined in decorative arts and glassmaking, often presented as luxurious gifts or displayed in parlors as tokens of elegance and refinement. This particular example, likely of European origin (late 19th to early 20th century), bridges that classical symbolism with the brilliance of fine crystal craftsmanship.
