Etablissements Gallé - Emile Gallé - Vase - apple blossom - Glass

Art Nouveau vase in acid-etched multi-layered glass by the Etablissements Emile Gallé, Nancy, France.

Émile Gallé, a visionary of the Art Nouveau movement, revolutionized glassmaking in late 19th-century France. Working from Nancy, Gallé combined his passions for botany, poetry, and chemistry to create glass pieces that were both technically innovative and deeply symbolic. His signature techniques included cameo glass, acid etching, and wheel carving, often layered with natural motifs such as flowers, insects, and landscapes.

Gallé's studio, the Cristallerie d'Émile Gallé, became a center of artistic excellence, where skilled artisans brought his intricate designs to life. After his death in 1904, production continued under the direction of his son-in-law, Paul Perdrizet, who preserved Gallé's legacy while introducing new designs. The studio remained active into the 1930s, focusing on multi-layered cameo glass with delicate floral and landscape themes.

Beautiful multi-layered vase with an acid-etched red decoration of apple blossoms on a yellow-orange background. Period 1906-1920. The vase is in very good condition with minimal signs of use. The vase is signed Gallé.

Dimensions: Height: 13 cm, width: 8 cm; depth: 6 cm.
