Violet Bowl
Daum Nancy
Circa 1905

This exquisite, frosted glass bowl by Daum Nancy embodies the elegance of the Art Nouveau movement with its intricate floral design. The bowl features delicate violets with green leaves, each enamel-painted with vivid colors that stand out against the frosted surface. The irregular, gently undulating rim adds an organic touch, enhancing the natural feel of the design. Daum’s signature technique of acid etching on the background and enameling brings the violets to life, creating a captivating contrast between the graduated amber to frosted glass and the vibrant flowers.

Founded by the Daum brothers in Nancy, France, this esteemed glassmaking firm rose to prominence during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The brothers pioneered techniques like multi-layered acid etching and hand carving, producing intricate floral motifs that became iconic. Their dedication to excellence earned them the prestigious Grand Prix at the 1900 Exposition Universelle in Paris, a testament to their impact on Art Nouveau design and their enduring legacy in glassmaking.
