Gallé Cameo Art Glass Vase
This charming art glass vase by Émile Gallé evokes the swirling organic forms of the Art Nouveau period. Orchids and foliage envelop the surface of the vase adding lovely form and shape. A long tapered neck with an everted rim creates a beautiful silhouette perfect for displaying a flower.
This vase is crafted of wonderfully executed technique called cameo glass. This unique and laborious process entails fusing together numerous layers of colored glass, then carving away a design to create a wonderful image from the contrast.
