Art nouveau cameo vase with datura flowers made by Daum Nancy

It is rare that you are able to see such a masterpiece made by Daum at Pan Amsterdam. Normally you find this quality only in London or Maastricht at Tefaf. Gallery Tiny Esveld was very lucky to find this wheel engraved vase made by Daum in 1900 with datura flowers. It is a typical example of the French art nouveau style of the Ecole de Nancy. The vase is made of multi layered glass like the glass by Emile Galle, then acid etched and finished with wheel engraving by hand. This vase is worthy to be in a museum.
