FAQs

Art Nouveau cameo glass is a multi-layered glass technique popularized in late 19th and early 20th century France, where artists etched or carved designs through outer layers of coloured glass to reveal contrasting backgrounds.

These pieces were crafted from multiple layers of blown glass, often utilizing chemical acid-etching alongside hand-carving and wheel-engraving to achieve intricate, multi-toned botanical reliefs.

Authentic pieces typically feature signature cameo signatures etched into the glass body, precise relief depth, distinct weight, and characteristic colour palettes associated with prominent French glassworks.

Place the vessel on a mantelpiece, side table, or inside a glass-fronted cabinet where natural light can pass through the translucent layers to highlight the intricate carved details.

Clean the glass gently using lukewarm water and a soft microfibre cloth, avoiding harsh chemical cleaners, abrasive scrubbers, and direct exposure to prolonged strong sunlight.
