Made … more This exceptional paperweight sculpture, signed "A. Walter Nancy", captures the essence of the Art Nouveau style at its finest. Made in pâte de verre, a technique that combines powdered glass and pigments to create translucent and textured effects, this piece shows a lizard sculpted with meticulous attention to detail. The reptile rests on a base with natural motifs, decorated with flowers and leaves in vibrant colors, evoking an organic landscape full of life.

Amalric Walter (1870-1959), originally from Sèvres, was one of the most prominent masters in the use of pâte de verre. After joining the prestigious Daum factory in Nancy, he revolutionized this technique, perfecting it together with Henri Bergé. Walter was inspired by nature and symbolism to create unique pieces that mix functionality and art, like this sculpture that can also serve as a paperweight. His work, characterized by rich colors and natural shapes, is a classic representation of the Art Nouveau movement. This piece has an attribution mark,
