Overview

This is a substantial acid-etched cameo glass vase featuring a striking, layered pine needle and branch motif.

Story

The late 19th century saw a revolution in Nancy, France, where artists like Émile Gallé began treating glass as a canvas for the natural world.

Maker / Origin

While the original masters like Gallé and Daum Frères are the icons of this style, workshops in Romania and Asia revived these complex acid-etching techniques in the late 1900s.

Condition & Value

The vase appears to be in good structural condition with no visible cracks or large chips. This is a decorative 'Tip' style piece rather than an original turn-of-the-century French masterpiece.
