Fuchsia Vase
Daum Nancy
Circa 1900
This exceptional Daum Nancy vase displays stunning enamel-painted fuchsias on its slender form. The vase is a masterwork of Art Nouveau glassmaking, crafted around the turn of the century. Featuring a colorless base layered with blue and white powdering, the vase showcases intricate enamel-painted fuchsias in vibrant red and purple on delicate green stems, set against a blue-to-white landscape. Meticulously acid-etched details lend a luminous, three-dimensional quality to the scene, highlighting the fuchsia design—a motif celebrated as one of Daum's most desirable and iconic creations.
Founded by the Daum family in Nancy, France, this renowned glassmaking firm reached prominence during the Art Nouveau movement. They quickly developed their unique style, using labor-intensive techniques like multi-layered acid etching and hand carving. Their floral motifs, as seen in this vase, have become emblematic of Daum’s work, and their dedication to craft was recognized with the Grand Prix at the 1900 Exposition Universelle in Paris, solidifying their position as masters of glass artistry.
