Set consists of two small vases and two ointments. The pieces are inspired by the work of the master glassmaker Émile Gallé (1846-1904), who will take over his father's factory in 1874, and in a short time will achieve great international success, winning awards at international exhibitions and selling works to major collections and museums. Today, pieces made by Émile Gallé can be seen in the Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg, the Metropolitan Museum in New York, the Orsay Museum in Paris, the Brohan Museum in Berlin and the Victoria & Albert Museum in London, among many others.
