Description: | This vase is mould blown rather than free blown. This method allows the glassmaker greater control over the final form. Emile Gall�� (1846-1904) established his own glasshouse in 1867 and went on to expand this factory with workers producing vases, lamps and tableware. It is possible to see from this piece how the effects of light shining through the varying colours and thickness of Gall�� glass lends itself well to lamps. | License: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/about/copyright/ | Rights holder: | Tyne & Wear Museums | Subjects: | beyond the North East art movement art designers glass makers other cultures date period | Source: | Tyne and Wear Imagine | Identifier: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/details/index.... | Go to resource |
