Summary:

Leo and Irina Esterkin's glass collection is impressive and provides a beautiful example of what Daum produced between 1910 and 1940. Everything is here: the transitional years from art nouveau to art deco, as well as Daum's search for a new style, which culminated in deeply etched vases with geometric decoration and in the later years with the blown vases in crystal. The Esterkin collection is unique in the world thanks to its completeness and the fact that it contains many rare pieces. The author Tiny Esveld specializes in art from the French art nouveau and art deco periods, in particular objects from the Ecole de Nancy. She is an expert on the glass of Emile Gallé, Daum-Nancy and Charles Schneider, and has recently published two books on those subjects.
