Verlys Art Deco Opalescent Glass Cup

About the Item

Opalescent glass fruit bowl with papyrus decoration. In perfect condition and signed. Height: 8 cm Diameter: 30 cm Weight: 1.9 kg VERLYS (1925-1946) is associated with the Holophane company (verrerie des Andelys – Hanots). It is an art glassware for the table and decorative objects. The creation of the VERLYS brand comes from the contraction of VERrerie des AndeLYS) This artistic production was composed of several hundred different pieces. The various catalogs that we know testify to the quality and diversity of the pieces manufactured: vases, cups, animal subjects, religious… The Verlys brand found its letters of nobility in large exhibitions alongside glassworks from Lalique – Etling – Sabino… and quickly attracted great glassmakers. The signature of these pieces was engraved either in the pocket or on the core of the mold. The same piece could have different colors, nevertheless referenced in a catalog. This artistic production was unfortunately not very profitable for the Holophane company. Verlys manufacturing was therefore abandoned around 1946 in favor of that of headlight lenses. In the 1970s, the management of the Company allowed some reprints of these glassware in order to reward sporting events and others, but the molds were often worn and showed defects: illegible signature, cracks, finish leaving something to be desired... and the colors were not always those referenced in the catalog. It should also be noted that the company no longer had colored glass towards the end of the 1990s. Today this company employs 350 people and manufactures glass road studs for road signs, fog light lenses, aspherical lenses and high-tech glasses intended largely for export.
