Art Nouveau Yellow Glass Vase by Legras-Saint Denis, France Early 20th Century

About the Item

Yellow glass vase is an original decorative Art Nouveau object realized in the first decade of the 20th century. Made in France by Legras-Saint Denis. Original colorless matt glass with red melted marbling and yellow ornamental painting. Signed: Leg. Mint conditions. Lively color glass vase with a high neck and a black decoration. The vase is a colorless matt glass with full surface marbling and black ornamental painting decorations on the surface. The decoration recalls an Oriental drawing. This work has been realized by Legras-Saint-Denis, France. The Legras-Saint-Denis manufacture has been founded by François Théodore Legras. Legras also dedicates himself to chemical studies, so as to be able to apply notions and technical secrets that led him to raise the signature, in commercial and artistic production, among the most important in France. The heterogeneous production of Legras includes glasses for the hospital sector and chemistry laboratories, gobeleterie, tableware, trays for desserts and cheeses, up to the original and curious liquor bottles or essences with famous shapes. At the end of the century the production of Art Nouveau glasses began. Legras and his nephew Charles, who joined him in 1900, produced vases, jardinières, soliflores, glass and crystal boxes and lamps, cameo, intaglio or enamel, with floral representations, pastoral scenes, marine landscapes and delicate snowy landscapes, which constitute a sure point of recognition of the Legras style. For technique, aesthetics and beauty they come to compete with their contemporary glass masters, in certain models and processes they even manage to overcome them.
