Ornamental vase
Émile Gallé
Museum of Applied Arts, Budapest
Budapest, Hungary
The prismatic body of a flat rhomboid base is decorated with orchid buds and blossoms. The petals and the leaves are shaped of silver foil, violet and orange glass thread and paste. The decoration, as well as the signature is apparently influenced by Japanese woodcuts, while the plinth shows the influence of Eastern bronzework.
