Large Art Glass Bowl Durand or Quezel / Unsigned

Description

Large art glass bowl Quezel or Durand. Unsigned most likely by Victor Durand.

Victor Durand art glass is prized by collectors worldwide for its beauty and styling. Durand art glass was made between 1924 and 1931. Durand was the art glass division of Vineland Flint Glass Works which was founded by Victor Durand in 1897. Many of the glass artists came from the Quezal Art Glass Company which closed in 1924. The artists at Durand were granted a great deal of freedom to produce glass in a variety of styles. Many pieces were blown using an unusual yellow glass which many collectors now refer to as “Ambergris”.
