Description
DAUM FRÈRES. Nancy, France, ca.1910.
Berluze" soliflower vase.
In blown glass.
Signed on the side "Daum, Nancy", and with the cross of Lorraine.
Provenance: Private Spanish collection, formed between 1970 and 1995.
Measurements: 45 x 11,5 x 11,5 cm.
Vase of Art Nouveau style, in blown glass, follows in its design the Berluze typology, introduced by the house Daum in its soliflore vases. It combines marbled tones with cobalt marbling. The Daum manufacture was founded at the end of the 19th century by Augustin Daum (1853-1909) from a small family glassworks in Nancy. He was joined by his brother Antonin (1864-1931), and the Daum workshops soon became a meeting place and training ground for many young artists, who gave impetus to the Art Nouveau style in Nancy. At first they made ordinary glass, but in 1891 they decided to open a decorative workshop and to embark on artistic production, probably as a result of the success of Émile Gallé (1846-1904) at the 1889 Exhibition. During the First World War, the factory closed, but resumed production after the war, adapting to the change in aesthetics and leaving behind the modernism of its first period. During the Art Nouveau period, most of Daum's pieces were made of acid-etched cameo glass, but with the new Art Deco style, new techniques and decorative styles were investigated.
