Magnificent circular cut received by a wrought iron mount. This print is in multi-layer glass with an orange and blue background. Signed lorrain. Dimensions: h: 23 cm - d. 24.5 cm the “verrerie belle etoile” factory was created on december 15, 1925 by antonin daum in order to sell items different from those produced by the nancy factory at competitive prices. To better highlight the diversity, this production is not carried out in nancy, but in croismare (near lunéville). From 1927, it mechanized to produce pieces in pressed blown and pressed molded glass, signed “lorrain”. Between 1928 and 1934, pierre d'avesn produced innovative models in this factory signed "lorrain" and "lorrain/p d'avesn". Pierre bergé also participates in the production of verrerie belle etoile with often molded decorations: vases, cups, ashtrays, bottles, lighting fixtures, sometimes with wrought iron frames without matching the quality of daum nancy productions which are designed in collaboration with majorelle. The economic crisis of the 1930s affected verrerie belle-étoile. It closed definitively on december 16, 1934. Some of the 120 workers were reclassified in nancy. The productions are signed “lorrain” molded in relief, engraved with a point or painted with enamel.
