The Daum Nancy vase with lake decor is an exemplary piece of Art Nouveau glass, reflecting both the technical expertise of the Daum brothers and the artistic sensitivity of the French decorative arts scene of the early century. Created by the renowned Daum studio, based in Nancy, France, this vase embodies the movement's fascination with nature and celebration of organic forms and fluidity.
The lake decor of the vase evokes a lakeside scene, with an emphasis on natural motifs, such as water and vegetation. Using Daum's signature pâte de verre technique, the artist creates a striking contrast between the ethereal quality of the glass and the detailed, often heavily textured elements inspired by nature, engraved or molded on the surface.
For the Art Nouveau movement, nature was a key source of inspiration, and the lake decor found in a Daum Nancy vase can be seen as an embodiment of this fascination with the natural world. The vase becomes more than a mere decorative object; it is an invitation to reflect on the ephemeral beauty of nature — captured, for a moment, in the midst of glass. This vase is a testament to Daum's legacy as a master of artistic glass, as well as to the broader aesthetic trends of the time, which sought to elevate the everyday through artistic mastery and a reverence for the beauty found in forms of nature.
Dimensions
depth 8 cm, width 11 cm, height 30 cm
Description
laminated glass, blown into mold, acid engraved, signed in the decorative field "Daum Nancy"
