Legras Art Nouveau French Glass Vase

About the Item

An Art Nouveau glass vase, made by the French glass manufactory Legras et Cie circa 1900-1914. France became the center for art glass production in the early 20th century, with names such as Gallé, Daum, and Lalique dominating the market at home and abroad. Among their ranks was François-Théodore Legras, whose glasswares contributed to the refinement of Art Nouveau glass in Europe. This tall, elegant glass vase comes from the ‘Indiana’ line produced by Legras in the beginning of the 20th century when the Art Nouveau style was being refined in France. Most pieces from the ‘Indiana’ line feature large poppies; this one is a rarer variant, much more restrained in its design with berry sprigs curving around the slender vase. The red berries, rendered in cameo glass, stand out against an acid-etched ground of mottled green. The vase’s opening and base are accented with gilded geometric details that are decidedly Art Nouveau. Dimensions: 14 in. H x 4 1/4 in. Dm at base (35.6 cm H x 10.8 cm Dm) Condition: Excellent.
