Loetz Vase Cytisus Neuroth ca. 1902

This delicate beauty exemplifies why the exquisite glass vases from the Loetz manufactory are not merely everyday objects, but rather true art treasures as well as luxurious collectibles: It embodies a perfectly coordinated trilogy of form, decoration and overlay.

While the delicate floral silver fitting nestles harmoniously over every curve and arch of the vase’s slender form, the richly colored “Cytisus” decoration shimmers on its distinctive underlay in the color “Neuroth”. With each curved line, the broad color palette reveals itself in shimmering gold, green, and orange tones, exposing the rare salmon pink overlay at a closer look.

Especially the delicate size of this art object shows the high quality of the hand-finishing of the silver overlay that has been applied to the glass. As viewing this vase, one realizes the true gem of this extraordinary creation of Loetz’s glassblowers.
