Style and technique by Amalric Walter

Amalric Walter is part of the Art Nouveau movement. He collaborated with the Manufacture de Sèvres and then with Daum, producing works in glass following his artistic vein. 

The life of Almaric Walter

Amalric Walter (1870-1959), French glassmaker, produced works in porcelain and pâte de verre. He trained at the manufacture de Sèvres, and early in his career produced earthenware. At the 1900 Universal Exhibition, his work is noticed. For his part, he noticed the glass works on display there, which inspired him to work with glass in turn.

Five years later, he joined the manufacture Daum, which enabled him to make his work even better known. He produces works in paste glass, with Henri Bergé. The collaboration lasts ten years. He then opens his own glass workshop in Nancy. He also reproduces sculptures by other artists, notably Rodin. His workshop closed in 1935, and his artistic production came to a halt at that time, due to changing tastes in Europe and the oncoming war.

He died in 1959 in great poverty. 

Amalric Walter's vases on the auction market

Lately, the art market has been observing a revival for the Nancy school and works by the Daum house and Émile Gallé. His production is therefore quoted on the art market.

More particularly, his vases are highly quoted on the auction market, and join the popularity of Daum vases with collectors. Depending on the works presented on the market, Almaric Walter's vases could fetch unprecedented prices at auction and have strong upside potential. 

Recognizing Amalric Walter's signature

Not all objects produced by Amalric Walter are signed. What's more, as several artists have worked and sometimes collaborated for the Daum factory, the object may be signed with another name even though it was produced by Walter. That's why it's important to have your pieces appraised.
