Émile Gallé (1846-1904)

At Chantilly, Emile Gallé became the undisputed master of art nouveau glass.

The Gallé firm started making this vase featuring Art Deco polar bears after the Nancy School leader’s death.

An opportunity to see such a fine Fang mask had not arisen for years, and this remarkable example was highly acclaimed before gems from the Jeanne Tachard Collection also put on a dazzling show.

The incredible Émile Gallé (1846-1904) transformed the wonderful bubbling of the Earth's depths into glass.

The amazing Villa Majorelle in Nancy stands at the crossroads between the arts and industry. Restored and refurnished, it is now open to the public.

Despite its extremely short life span—less than a day, or even mere hours—the mayfly is an insect that did not escape the eye of Emile Gallé, well-known for his love of butterflies and dragonflies.

Swallows and passionflowers, spring’s calling cards, are captured by these masters of Art Nouveau design...

Highly original furniture, both antique and modern, performed brilliantly at this sale in Auxerre, as did naturalist glassware by the magician of Nancy.

The Nancy glassworker's magic was evident yet again with a vase presented in Strasbourg, with a delicate colour inspired by the iris and a form echoing the silhouette of the flower in bud.

This auction of furniture from a Norman château attests to Émile Gallé's ability to create furniture with all its decorative features, like future designers.
