Phaenomen Genre Vase
Loetz
Circa 1890-1899

This elegant Jugendstil vase by Loetz exudes an enchanting, colorful glow, featuring the iconic Phaenomen Genre Series 1 glass bowl, first introduced in 1890. Created by Johann Loetz Witwe, the expertly blown glass vessel captivates with its mesmerizing iridescence. Swirling yellow tones, accented by shimmering Silberiris dots on the interior of the vase, create a dazzling interplay of light and color, making it a true masterpiece of Art Nouveau design.

The polished nickel-plated base, likely crafted by a German firm, features intricate leaf motifs and organic forms that harmonize beautifully with the artistry of the glass shade. Together, the base and vase exemplify the Jugendstil aesthetic—Germany’s counterpart to Art Nouveau—seamlessly blending organic forms with precision and showcasing exceptional craftsmanship.

Bohemian glassmaker Johann Loetz Witwe was a pioneer of the Art Nouveau movement, redefining the art of glassmaking with groundbreaking techniques and visionary designs. The firm’s innovative creations, including the renowned Phaenomen Genre series, established its legacy as one of the most influential glass manufacturers of the era. This lamp, with its harmonious blend of artistic elegance and practical functionality, embodies the spirit of an age that celebrated the union of art and modern technology.
