Blue Glass and Wrought Iron Vase
Daum Nancy and Majorelle
Circa 1925
This exceptional glass and wrought iron vase represents a striking collaboration between Daum Nancy and Louis Majorelle, two of the most celebrated names in Art Deco design. Marrying Daum’s mastery of glassmaking with Majorelle’s expertise in wrought iron, this vase exemplifies the seamless fusion of organic and geometric forms that defined early 20th-century decorative arts. Their partnership produced some of the most coveted works of the period.
The vase features an opaque blue glass body with stunning silver leaf, skillfully hand-blown to achieve remarkable depth and coloring. The iron framework, crafted by Majorelle, embraces the glass with rectangular geometric motifs, creating a bold contrast between the fluidity of the glass and the rigid elegance of the metal. The design reflects the shift from the sinuous lines of Art Nouveau to the structured, modern aesthetic of Art Deco.
Daum Nancy, renowned for pioneering techniques such as pâte de verre, was at the forefront of French glassmaking. Their collaborations with Majorelle, a leading figure in the École de Nancy, redefined decorative arts by integrating glass with intricate metalwork. This partnership, which gained international acclaim at the 1900 Paris Exposition, set the standard for luxury Art Deco design.
