Iridescent Glass Coupe with Tripod Base Threads, Attributed to the Loetz

About the Item

Very beautiful cup with polylobed edge, hot-worked in iridescent glass with threads, called "string" in relief, on a tripod base in gilded metal, finely chiseled. This very beautiful work is attributed to the Loetz factory. Period: Art Nouveau Circa: 1880 - 1910 Dimensions: Height: 9cm -Diameter. : 22cm At the heart of Europe, in Bohemia, the Loetz factory developed a highly successful production of glassware at the end of the 19th century. Characterized by iridescent surface decorations and sinuous forms inspired by nature, the vases and bowls of the glassware are fully in line with the Austrian Art Nouveau style (Jugendstill), which was predominant in the decorative arts of the time. The special and typical color and relief of Loetz glasses give them an extremely refined touch. Loetz was also one of the pioneers in the use of electrolytic deposition techniques, and he patented many processes. The innovative and original shapes used by Loetz and inspired by the glass objects of ancient Persian and Roman Art, are typical of glassware in the Art Nouveau style. Other equally popular motifs from Loetz are vases inspired by nature and decorated with original shapes in “swan's neck” or “peacock” color in iridescent blue-green tones. This constantly renewed creativity was made possible in part thanks to collaborations established with Viennese merchants-publishers and artists and would also earn Loetz several awards at the Universal Exhibitions, notably in Paris in 1900.

  • Blown Glass Ewer - Murano - Art Nouveau - Period: Early 20th Century
    Located in CRÉTEIL, FR
    Beautiful ewer in white Murano glass, blue and red watermarked, mouth-blown. Until the 17th and 18th centuries, ewers were used to serve drinks. Generally made of gold or silver precious metal, finely sculpted and chased, it takes the form of an elegantly shaped vase, generally taller than it is wide, mounted on a foot, with a spout and handle. Its name comes from the word aigue, meaning water in Old French (as does the locality of Aigues-Mortes). The ewer was widely used throughout the Middle Ages and the Renaissance.  In the 18th century, it was replaced by the crystal carafe and the earthenware water jug. The water jug was originally designed to serve water on tables. It was also used for washing.  Period: Early 20th century Dimensions: Height: 33cm - Width: 16cm   Filigree glass is the French translation of the old Venetian term "vetro a filigrana"; this name covers a range of transparent blown glass varieties in which stretched glass threads ("canne") in white or various colors are incorporated. "Latticino" or "Latticinio" is an Italian term that has fallen into disuse and also designates "vetro a filigrana".  This generic term covers three different types of decor: "vetro a fili", in which the "canes" form parallel lines; "vetro a retorti...
