Art Nouveau Pâte De Verre Vide-Poche 'Deux Poissons', Amalric Walter, France
Located in Vienna, AT
Decorative pâte-de-verre vide-poche: bowl in yolk yellow, one side overflowing in dark blue, swimming around each other, plastically formed goldfish couple. Signed 'AWALTER NANCY' on the top. Manufactory: Amalric Walter, Nancy, Lorraine, France Dating of manufacture: circa 1920/1925 Designer: VICTOR AMALRIC WALTER (1870-1959) was a French glass manufacturer mainly known for his pâte de verre pieces. In the Cristalleries Daum at Nancy, France, he met the designer and modelist HENRI BERGÉ, with whom he produced the first pâtes de verre, which at the time were only signed with "Daum Nancy". After the war he continued to work with Henri Bergé. From 1919 to 1935 he cast no fewer than 500 models with Bergé and other famous sculptors or designers, always in few numbers due to the sophisticated technique of glass kiln casting. Technique: Pâte de verre (English glass paste) is a technique used in the production of multi-colored glass. A cold-formed paste made of glass powder and dyes is filled into a refractory mold and then fired in a muffle furnace, whereby the glass melts into the desired shape. To achieve polychrome color effects, the process is repeated with other colors. The technique was already known in ancient Rome and Egypt. Particularly in the Art Nouveau period and later in the Art Deco period, she found artistic use again in works by French glass artists such as Gabriel Argy-Rousseau, Henry Cros...

Highly distinctive and unique, this cylindrical paperweight is decorated on its upper surface with exquisitely detailed sculptural relief: a dove in flight, shown flying over a cluster of clouds and the word "FLIGHT." Although it shows a beautiful bird, storied in mythology and literature, this sculpture also hints at the flight of man, and the curving sides of the piece are decorated with Art Deco geometric forms, sharply incised into the stone. The artist was Brenda Putnam, who used this same image for one side of her well-known bronze medal, also entitled "Flight", issued in 1941 by the Society of Medalists...
