AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Art Nouveau cameo glass vase by Paul Nicolas, signed D’Argental, made in France (Nancy, Lorraine) between 1919 and 1925.

The vase features a slender baluster shape, with a tapered body, slightly flared base, and flared rim, typical of the artist’s mature work.
The raised floral decoration was created by acid-etching layered glass, a complex technique distinctive of the Nancy School.

The color palette features nuanced amber and brown tones, contrasted with the floral decoration, creating depth and refined plays of light characteristic of D’Argental’s work.

The piece is in excellent condition, with no cracks, chips, or restoration.
The “D’Argental” signature is present on the body of the vase and is visible in the photograph.
An authentic collector’s piece, accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.
