Charles Schneider, the colour magician in French art deco glass

Charles Schneider started his career at Daum Nancy. Daum and Galle were famous for art nouveau glass. Charles and his brother Ernest left Daum in 1913 and started their own cristallerie in Epinay sur Seine near Paris. Schneider got famous for his vases in contrasting colours and amazing shapes. His coupes bijoux are collected and loved all over the world. The collection shown in the video is a good example of Schneider’s mastership. Wheel engraving, acid etching and applications are used techniques on these vases.
