AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
20th-century Art Deco-style glass vase by French artist Pierre D'Avesn (1901–1990), attributed to the Daum Nancy glassworks.
Opaline glass decorated with a floral motif and handles on the sides. Unmarked. In excellent vintage condition, with no signs of wear.
Pierre Gire (known as Pierre D'Avesn) was born in 1901. At just 14, he began working for Lalique. In 1926, he left Lalique to create his own designs, which were later produced by Cristallerie de Saint-Rémy. In 1930, Daum Frères appointed him artistic director of the department dedicated to moulded glass at their glassworks in Croismare. In 1937, he took over the management of Verlys.
From 1940 onward, he worked independently, entrusting the production of his pieces to Cristallerie de Choisy-le-Roi (Sèvres).
Dimensions: height 17.5 cm x base diameter 8.5 cm x mouth diameter 14 cm
Weight: 1.8 kg
