Amalric Walter and Henri Bergé Hexagonal Pâte de Verre Glass Dish
Designed by Henri Bergé and executed by Amalric Walter, this softly hexagonal shallow pâte de verre glass dish is an alluring array of light amber and greenish earthen hues, swirling about the composition to offer the impression of a French Art Nouveau whirling tide. At the center of the dish is an abstracted form of a crab in darkened hues, attached to seaweed that dances around him and up the sides of the dish.
