Art Deco “Floraliès” Vase by Doyen Belgium, ca. 1930s An exceptional example of Belgian Art Deco glassware, this striking vase was made by Doyen, one of the most renowned glass manufacturers of the period, based in Havré-Ville. Crafted in richly colored amethyst glass, its bold architectural form stands out for both its scale and rarity. The faceted body, wide shoulders, and scalloped collar create a commanding presence, while the deep violet hue captures and plays with the light beautifully. The vase is entirely handmade; slight imperfections are acceptable. This vase is a beautiful representation of the influence of modernism and geometric form in European Art Deco. A rare collector’s item — documented, authentic, and timeless. In the early 20th century, Jean-Baptiste Doyen and his son Gaston established a glass factory in Havré-Ville, near Mons, Belgium. Originally named Verreries Gobeleteries d’Havré-Ville, the company specialized in producing high-quality blown glassware, including tableware, lighting, and decorative pieces. Doyen’s work became particularly renowned for its Art Deco designs, featuring elegant shapes, refined engravings, and meticulous craftsmanship. A notable example is a set of mouth-blown glasses adorned with finely scoured olive shapes and intricate fan patterns, showcasing the exquisite attention to detail of the era. Among Doyen’s most celebrated creations is the “Floralies” series, which embodies the refined elegance of Art Deco design. Produced in the early 20th century, these vases are distinguished by their bold geometric forms, intricate detailing, and rich, vibrant colors. One of the most remarkable models, no. 150, crafted in the 1930s, features striking vertical stripes and a distinctive corrugated collar, often produced in warm brown glass. Many pieces from the series still bear the “Floralies” label, preserving their legacy and making them easily recognizable among collectors. Today, Doyen’s glassware remains highly sought after by enthusiasts and collectors of Belgian Art Deco pieces. Their timeless elegance and historical significance continue to make them prized additions to vintage collections, standing as a testament to Belgium’s rich glassmaking tradition and artistic heritage.
