Beautiful French Art Nouveau Large Gallé Triangular Glass Vase, Poppies

1900 - 1920
Description

Striking French Art Nouveau Émile Gallé (early 20thC) multi-layer, acid-etched triangular glass cameo vase by decorated with red poppies on a satin amber background. Signed Gallé. 26.5cm x 10cm x 10cm (base), weight 1.05kg.

Superb original condition.

Émile Gallé (1846-1904) was born in Nancy, France and is considered one of the most outstanding glass artists of his time. He greatly contributed to the development of the art of glassmaking and to the Art Nouveau style itself. He first exhibited at the Paris International Exhibition in 1889, presenting his own new types of glass, including carved cameo and pate de verre work, new shapes of vases and extraordinary new colours. Throughout the 1890’s in his ‘Cristallerie d’Emile Gallé’, he exhibited his works with great success, winning international awards, recognition through commissions and increased popular demand. After his death in 1904, his widow continued to run the glassworks until the outbreak of war in 1914, with pieces sold marked with a star after his signature. Gallé glassware continued to be made until 1935, when the company ceased production.

This French Art Nouveau cameo glass vase from the period around 1900 displays a tapered triangular form with a frosted amber yellow background and red acid-etched relief decoration. The surface depicts multi-layer poppy blossoms, buds, stems, and serrated leaves rendered in tones of pink and deep red. The maker's signature appears near the lower section of the body, and the piece maintains its original satin finish. The dimensions measure 26.5 cm high, 10 cm wide, and 10 cm deep. In a contemporary home, this decorative vessel suits display upon a sideboard top within a living room, dining room, or hallway. The triangular silhouette and botanical motifs integrate cleanly into classical or eclectic interiors as an ornamental display piece.

Galle cameo glass refers to multi-layered, acid-etched decorative glass vessels developed by Emile Galle in Nancy, France, during the late 19th and early 20th century Art Nouveau movement.

Cameo glass was created by casing multiple layers of differently coloured glass over a base shape, after which acid-etching or wheel-carving removed portions of the outer layers to expose relief designs.

Authentic pieces feature relief signatures etched or carved into the glass surface, alongside defined layered depth, precise botanical details, and characteristic Art Nouveau production marks.

A cameo glass vase functions as a focal accent on a sideboard, mantelpiece, or console table, particularly when placed near ambient light to highlight its translucent layers.

Clean cameo glass using lukewarm water and mild soap with a soft microfibre cloth, avoiding harsh chemical cleaners, abrasive scrubbers, or sudden temperature shifts.
