GLASS MADE TRANSPARENT. A PRACTICAL GUIDE TO FRENCH ART GLASS BY GALLE, DAUM AND SCHNEIDER,
Rijkevorsel, Auteur, 2010 Illustrated cardboard cover in colour, 205 x 260mm., 176pp., beautiful colour illustration throughout. ISBN 9789081577601.
Tiny Esveld, an antique dealer, has written a practical guide book called Glass made Transparent produced by the great French glass artists Galle, Daum en Schneider. The main objective of the book is to give a professional insight into the technique and production of these beautiful and exceptional pieces in order to protect lovers, connoisseurs and collectors from buying by mistake. The world of glass is unfortunately full of deception. The pitfalls accompanying a purchase can be plentiful but however fraudulent or deceitful Esveld reveals all in Glass made Transparent, the first revealing publication of its kind. The book is a beautifully designed guidebook rich in illustration with excellent practical guidelines. French glass no longer maintains any secrets. Glass made Transparent is published in the English language with a resume in French, Dutch and Spanish and is also available as an e-book publication. Glass Made Transparent guides the reader in eight chapters through the world of the great French glass artists Galle, Daum and Schneider of the period 1890 - 1930. Esveld not only describes the beauty and artistry of their glass art but also reveals the technical side of their creations in great detail. This book helps to detect a genuine example from a falsification, a flawless piece from a damaged one and it trains the eye for any cut glass or combinations of pieces put together. It educates the reader to develop a feeling for the perfect style and shape, to learn to look sharply at the decoration, colour, finish and signature of its maker. It also points out all the applied tricks of the trade of the past and present day in order to deceive the unsuspecting buyer. New book.
