Daum Nancy French Art Glass Vase – Large Red Mottled With Gold Leaf

A striking and monumental French art glass vase by Daum Nancy, dating to the early 20th century. This elegant piece stands tall with a commanding presence, showcasing Daum’s signature mastery in color layering and decorative technique.

The glass is richly mottled in deep burgundy and crimson tones, evoking the organic warmth of autumnal foliage. A cascade of applied gold leaf fragments dances across the surface in a sinuous, almost flame-like pattern, catching the light and adding dynamic texture.

The form is gently tapered with a flared lip and rounded base, demonstrating both Art Nouveau fluidity and early Art Deco restraint. Signed “Daum Nancy” with the Cross of Lorraine, this vase is a museum-quality example of the famed French glassmaker’s craftsmanship. Ideal for collectors and connoisseurs alike.
