Designer François-Emile Décorchemont French

Not on view

Décorchement was a master of pâte-de-verre, a technique in which a malleable paste made from crushed glass colored and metallic oxides is cast in heated molds. His pieces, which do not obviously look like glass, are characterized by their rich color, dense translucency, and matte finish.
