Emile Gallé was a leading figure of the Art Nouveau movement in France and a multifarious artist. Internationally renowned for his glasswork, his lamps are now highly sought after and widely imitated collector's items. This book is a comprehensive guide to all of the light fixtures created by the Gallé cristallerie, from those produced during his lifetime to those manufactured for over twenty-five years after his death in 1904. The lamps are characterised by their distinct curvilinear structures, rich colours and elaborate floral motifs. They represent the very essence of the Art Nouveau movement. Fascinatingly, many of Gallé's most desirable models were introduced as late as 1925, while Art Nouveau was being usurped by the growing Art Deco movement. Written by Decorative Arts expert Alistair Duncan, and accompanied by over 500 beautiful colour illustrations this publication is an essential guide to Gallé Lamps
