A French Art Nouveau pâte de verre dish by Amalric Walter and Daum Frères, featuring an intricately cast butterfly on a brilliant blue and purple teardrop shaped tray.

French Art Nouveau Wax Sculpture by Vernbet

A French Art Nouveau wax sculpture, depicting a nude maiden resting her hands on top of her head with an owl at her feet. The piece is signed “H.
