Muller Freres Luneville Hunters and Elephant Opalescent Glass Plate
About the Item
This stunning and extremely rare 1930s Art Deco opalescent glass presentation plate was manufactured by Müller Freres in Luneville, France. A stunning African theme echoes the design direction and influence of tribal motifs used during this period. The image sports a magnificent elephant being pursued by two African hunters. All aspects of the images are sitting on a stylized and quite complex floral design. This plate represents the old days, a time when hunters were massacring elephants for their ivory, fortunately, that is no longer legal and this theme really becomes a symbol of a time in the past.
A strong sense of depth has been achieved by embossing or beveling part of the glass, producing very sharp details and a wonderfully tactile effect. The beauty of this plate is further reinforced by the treatment of opalescent opaque color on surface achieved by Masterly color and polishing techniques. The glass is very thick and as such is quite substantial. The plate is signed on the bottom back side “Müller Frères Luneville”.
