Palme König - Vase - Glass

Pallme-König – Art Nouveau glass vase with iridescent glass and 'Venoso' decoration – circa 1900–1905

Height: 21.5 cm · Width: 10.5 cm

Extraordinary multilayer blown and bent glass vase, with an organic and elegant silhouette and a slightly flared mouth. The piece stands out for its dazzling iridescent, oil-slick effect, which displays golden, green, and purple reflections when light hits it, a characteristic effect of late-century bohemian productions.

Its exterior decoration corresponds to the renowned 'Venoso' motif, formed by hot-applied glass threads that traverse the body in sinuous patterns. This treatment, associated with the renowned manufacturer Pallme-König & Habel (Kosten, Bohemia), is one of the most appreciated features by collectors of Central European Art Nouveau.

Unsigned work, created around 1900–1905, during the height of bohemian modernism.
Excellent condition, with the iridescence especially well preserved.
