Lot 6550:
D’Argental Cameo Glass Vase with landscape and windmill scene.c1910 D’Argental Dutch Scenic Cameo Glass Vase. Incredible complex labor intensive piece of over 100 year old hand engraved art nouveau French cameo glass with no issues or damage whatsoever.St Louis had been and still is one of the great old glass houses of France; they had gone to the Paris exhibition in 1900 expecting to be crowned king of glass only to be completely out-classed by the cameo glass of the ?upstart? Emile Galle. In the early 1920s Production at St Louis clearly had its limitations, the crystal glass they used, had a more limited color palate than he was used to at Galle and the extra toughness of the crystal glass meant internal polishing was effectively impossible. But using crystal did mean the cameo and wheel cutting could be much finer.
