AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Beautiful rare-form Art Nouveau antique glass art
Papillon decor silver-yellow glass vase
from Johann Loetz Witwe
Klostermühle, Austria Glass Factory, 1898
Finest workmanship and high quality
Series: Candia Papillon - PN II-238
The fairy-tale magic of iridescent and lustrous glass is evident in the work of the world-renowned company Joh. Loetz Witwe, especially in its highest achievements, which unite artistic design with handmade and technical perfection. Initially inspired by Tiffany glass, the creative forces of the Bohemian glass factory soon found their own independence, which owes much to Viennese design.
A typically splendid Loetz glass vase from the Art Nouveau period around 1900!
Beautiful form that narrows toward the top and widens at the base. Yellow-silver glass in Papillon decor, the shimmering oil-spot granules formed from melted, silvery and blue-glossing glass fragments, which dreamily shimmer.
Papillon - one of Loetz's most common decors! It is a wonderful technique developed by Loetz and appropriately called "Candia Papillon" or "Amber Spotted Butterfly Wings" and by some collectors referred to as "Oil Spot" decoration.
The quality of this glass is comparable to L.C.T. Tiffany Favrile and Steuben Glass from New York. The three competed strongly around the turn of the century for the Art Nouveau glass market in the USA.
Papillon décor was then a great discovery and novelty from Loetz and caused a sensation in the world of glass.
An extraordinarily beautiful design and a fantastic eye-catcher for any collection or a modern ambiance.
Height: 23 cm, Diameter: top 9 cm, widest point at the bottom 11.5 cm
Condition: Used, good condition, undamaged - with small signs of aging. Base scratched
Shipping: DHL insured.
