Gabriel Argy-Rousseau "Eucalyptus" Pâte de Verre Glass Vase
This French Art Nouveau "Eucalyptus" pâte de verre vase, by Gabriel Argy-Rousseau, features a white field flecked with soothing seams of orange, purple, and green hues running through the background for this subdued, but moving, composition. Featuring delicate, twisting dark green stems upholding great, broad dancing leaves in bright green and purple and finished with deeply colored berries in equally deep relief the ethereal arrangement is imbued with great movement.
