Origin: Muller Frères Lunéville, France, circa 1920 Muller Frères is an iconic name in Art Nouveau and Art Deco, famous for its artistic glass creations and exceptional lighting. Founded in Lunéville, Lorraine (France), the company established itself as one of the great names in French glassmaking, alongside Daum and Gallé. The Origins: The history of Muller Frères began with a talented family passionate about glassmaking. The Muller brothers, from a family of nine children, grew up in a region known for its glasswork. Among them, Henri, Camille, Désiré, Eugène, and Victor Muller dedicated themselves to the art of glass, receiving solid training in the workshops of renowned master glassmakers, including Gallé in Nancy. Their collaboration with one of the pioneers of Art Nouveau allowed them to master sophisticated techniques and develop their own artistic vision. The Foundation of the Workshop (circa 1895-1910): At the end of the 19th century, the Muller brothers decided to strike out on their own and founded their own workshop in Lunéville, near Nancy. The company specialized in producing vases, bowls, lamps, and chandeliers in engraved, blown, and sometimes enamelled glass. Their style, inspired by nature, was part of the Art Nouveau movement, favoring floral, plant motifs, and organic shapes. The Peak: Transition to Art Deco (1920s): With the evolution of tastes in the early 20th century, the Mullers adapted to the Art Deco style, characterized by more geometric lines and abstract motifs. They developed innovative collections, focusing on interior lighting: chandeliers, sconces, table lamps, often combined with metal or bronze frames. Their mastery of pâte de verre and acid etching techniques allowed them to create pieces of remarkable quality, blending subtle color shades and unique textures. Each piece often bears the "Muller Frères Lunéville" signature, ensuring the authenticity and excellence of the work. Decline and Legacy: Like many artisan workshops, Muller Frères suffered from economic crises and the upheavals of World War II. The company gradually declined in the mid-20th century, eventually closing down. However, Muller Frères pieces remain highly prized by collectors and art enthusiasts today. They are found in many private collections and museums, testifying to their craftsmanship and lasting influence on the history of French glass art. Muller Frères Lunéville is now a symbol of French glass art, synonymous with elegance, innovation, and excellence. Highlights: Rarity: A highly rare collector's item that will enrich any elegant interior. Authenticity: Signed by the renowned Muller Frères workshop, a guarantee of authenticity and quality. Excellent Preservation: The glass and wrought iron are in perfect condition, reflecting the quality of craftsmanship and meticulous care over the years. This lamp is a true testament to the craftsmanship and elegance of French decorative arts, particularly the artists of the École de Nancy, active during the Art Nouveau and Art Deco periods. It is ideal for high-end décor, whether in a living room, office, or as a centerpiece in a collection of early 20th-century art objects. Don’t miss out on this rare item!

Muller Frères

Muller Frères was a family-owned glassworks that is best known for its striking designs produced in the Art Deco and Art Nouveau styles. The French company’s chandeliers, vases, lamps and other glass pieces created in the latter style — which were largely characterized by elegantly crafted natural-world motifs and subtle, organic forms — are highly sought after and make for distinctive additions to any space.

Henri Muller opened the company with four of his brothers in Lunéville, during a time that saw the modernizing Art Nouveau movement in the decorative arts develop countrywide as well as in Britain. It quickly became a dominant aesthetic style in Western Europe and the United States. Muller’s sister and an additional three brothers later joined the business.

The Muller family custom-ordered glass blanks from a glassworks near Nancy. The brothers learned about glass design from Émile Gallé, an innovative pioneer in glass artistry who would become a leading light of Art Nouveau. The style, which spanned furniture, architecture, jewelry and graphic design — can be easily identified by its lush, flowing forms suggested by flowers and plants, as well as the lissome tendrils of sea life. The earliest works by Muller Frères, which were often crafted in cameo glass, are strongly demonstrative of Gallé’s style and influence.
