This rare Daum Nancy vase showcases the superb quality and detail for which the firm's cameo glass is beloved. Vibrant red flowers were acid-etched on the vibrant yellow-orange ground. The imagery was then carefully wheel-carved to create additional texture. Daum artisans were extremely gifted wheel engravers, yet used the method only sparingly, making creations such as this extraordinarily rare. Very few pieces of this quality would have been produced, serving as models for industrial production.

Daum Nancy is considered among the best and most famous French cameo glass producers of the Art Nouveau period, from 1890 to 1920. Initially produced by Auguste and Antonin Daum around 1890, the firm was heavily influenced by nature, which led to the production of many floral and scenic works. Daum glass is highly desirable among collectors today, especially items of such incredible artistry and quality.
