Lot Essay

Val Saint Lambert is a Belgian glass factory based in Seraing, which was founded in 1826. The factory's high quality production was popular not only in Belgium and the Netherlands, but also in Russia which was one of its largest export markets. After the Revolution of 1917, the market for Val Saint Lambert's glass production in Russia stalled.
