Conch shell vase, Johann Loetz Witwe, Diaspora decoration, ca. 1902
This fantastically preserved example of a conch shell vase with plastic leaf overlays made of colorless glass is part of the production series of the glassworks Loetz created around 1902. The 11? tall vase with a “Diaspora” decoration will make many a collector’s heart beat faster. The obvious quality of the decoration as well as the execution of the shape are almost in aesthetic competition with each other.
The “Candia”-yellow ground of the glass, which makes the vase shine in a golden glow, the changing of colors in contrasting blue and silver tones, the sweepingly applied leaves, reminiscent of dancing sea grass – all these impressions embody the pure aesthetic pleasure of Jugendstil glass.
