HENRY SCHLEVOGT (1904 - 1984). Bohemia, ca. 1940.Art Deco period vase, in green malachite moulded
Art Deco period vase, in green malachite moulded glass, decorated in relief with butterflies.
Provenance: Private collection, Spain between 1970-1990.
Measurements: 10 cm (height); 6,5 cm (diameter).
American-born Curt Schlevogt established his own company focusing on the export of pearls from Jablonec in 1928. In the following years, however, his company also became heavily involved in the production of artistic glassware (tiny applied glass objects made by moulding or blowing). This was probably caused by his son, Henry Günther Schlevogt, who was extensively involved in the introduction of this type of production at the Jablonec export company A. Sachs & Co. as its representative in the USA.
At the 1934 spring fair in Leipzig, the Schlevogt company presented its moulded glass collection under the brand name "Ingrid". The collection was opened and gradually received new patterns. The most artistically impressive ones were the result of the company's collaboration with prominent artists such as Ladislav P?enosil, Zden?k Juna, František Pazourek, Artur Pleva, M. Petrucci, E. Rottenberg and many others. The company gained fame and favour among glass lovers mainly for its fashionable glass materials, jade, turquoise jade and lapis lazuli, of which a significant part of the collection was moulded at the Josef Riedl glassworks in Polubný.
A supreme example of the artistic efforts of the Schlevogt company was its "ArtisticCrystallery - Ingrid" catalogue, which included figurative sculptures awarded the Grand Prix at the 1937 World Exhibition in Paris. Among the conventional Art Nouveau and Rococo models, functionalist designs or, eventually, variations on Art Deco and Bruno Mauder's designs (vases, jugs) predominated.
