Description
French vase Emile Gallé. Weight: 214 gr. Dimensions: 20.0 X 5.5 cm.
Biography:
Born in Nancy, France, Émile Gallé (1846-1904) is considered by many to be the pre-eminent glassmaker of the late 19th and early 20th century. The pieces produced by his eponymous company were famous for their beautiful forms, rich colour palettes and inspired decoration, often featuring popular Art Nouveau motifs relating to nature, botany and insects.
The techniques Gallé pioneered enabled his company to create the most refined glassware on the market. Today, one of the best public collections of Gallé glass and ceramics, comprising more than 400 works, can be found at the Musée de l’École de Nancy.
Gallé was personally involved in design creation at his company, and also often oversaw the technical research it carried out. The fact that the names of the designers and craftsmen employed by Gallé are less well known than that of its founder does not affect the overall value of a work.
For a collector, the main distinction to be made is between the unique, hand-modelled pieces produced by the Gallé Company, and those executed in larger quantities.
Like René Lalique, the man and the brand are considered one and the same. Gallé died in 1904, but his factory continued to produce high-quality glass under the guidance of his friend, the painter Victor Prouvé. Works executed after Gallé’s death occasionally bear a small star next to his signature.
