Signed Daum Nancy cased, cameo art glass bowl. Made Nancy, France, first quarter of the 20th century.<P>
Measures approx 6 1/4 inches accross and 3 inches high.

Irregularly shaped round bowl, curving into 4 lobes. The glass is intrigueing - it has a stippled texture and iridises to different shades, depending on how the light catches it. In regular light it looks pearly and sunshine yellow with pink overtones. In slightly less sunlight, it takes on blue and green hues. See 'photos for different effects. Above this is a deep iron red layer of glass which was cut and cameo carved into a continuous frieze of prickly thistle flowers and foliage on scrolling spined stalks. Very elegant and sinuous. The thistle is the symbolic flower of the Nancy region in France. The thistle cameo design can be seen through the inside of the bowl as well, making this a particularly interesting and beautiful example of Daum cameo.

The bowl is signed in gold script underneath with DAUM NANCY and the cross of Lorraine.

Condition is very good. No chips/cracks/damage/restoration.
