Jacques Gruber, French plastic artist, painter and glassmaker, born on January 25, 1870 in Sundhausen (Germany) carried out decorations of vases for Daum.
What Makes Daum Vases A Collector’s Dream
Daum vases come from the house of Daum in Nancy, France. They are vintage collectible art objects proudly owned and lovingly gift. They are living embodiment of the excellence of art nouveau and art deco. The legacy started in 1878 when Jean Daum took over an old glass factory in Nancy, France. This is why sometimes Daum creations are also referred as Daum Nancy. Jacques Gruber is the artist behind many of the Daum vases. Natural motifs were used to produce acid-etched vases in lead crystal glass. Motifs like birds, flowers, foliage, and trees were enameled.
Daum has blended the legacy craftsmanship with the modern techniques to present excellent vases one after the other. One of the trademark techniques is pate de verre. This unique method employs firing of the piece on a glass paste applied over the mold surface. Precision, exact location and intensity of colors can be controlled to an unimaginable limit using this method. The result is the crystal and art glass creations that are far unmatched by any competitor.[..Read More..]
