Cast glass vases
Do you own any cast glass vases? Are you curious to know what they are worth? Our Experts can provide an appraisal to give you an estimate of the market price, then help you to ensure the best possible price should you decide to sell.
The history of glass casting
Cast glass vases have been known since Ancient times and were mentioned by Pliny the Elder. For a long time neglected, glass paste was reintroduced by Henry Cros, who managed to cold-mould it. Cast glass vases were to become a true symbol of the Art Nouveau and Art Deco movements.
The big names in glass casting
Some names became essential in this field such as Argy-Rousseau made cast glass vases in shimmering colours. François Emile Decorchemont was one of the master glassmakers in this field. He worked his vases with rather thick cast glass. Generally speaking, these pieces are original and are close to the symbolist movement.
The main patterns on cast glass vases
Nature was an inexhaustible source of inspiration for the various artists specialising in the manufacture of cast glass vases. Today, one of the only factories that still makes cast glass vases is the world-famous Daum. This luxury studio contributed to the diffusion of cast glass thanks to the École de Nancy founded by Émile Gallé, a specialist in moulded glass. One of Daum’s unique approaches is that they collaborate with artists in order to create original works.
