Art Nouveau vase by Moritz Hacker and Johann Loetz Witwe, early 20th century

Important museum display vase from the full Art Nouveau period. Large Bohemian glass handle vase with raised and chiselled metal decoration in Art Nouveau style. The glass has a very particular "Papillon" decoration: a transparent green glass with yellow-silver inclusions and iridescence. This important vase is the result of the collaboration between Moritz Hacker (Budapest 1849-1932), court jeweler, and Johann Loetz Witwe, an important artistic glass producer from Klostermühle, in Bohemia, Austria-Hungary. The works of Johann Loetz are among the most important examples of Art Nouveau. The vase features the Moritz Hacker mark under the base.
The vase proposed by us is of a unique refinement in artistic execution and perfectly blends all the stylistic canons of Art Nouveau. A collector's vase for refined researchers of unique works of art.
