In contrast to the deeply cut and finely engraved decoration on the other glasses in this case, the simple, flat pattern on this vase was achieved by acid etching. The hard geometry of Dorflinger’s cut patterns has been replaced here by representational floral designs, whose gentle curves suggest the Art Nouveau style.
