Almaric Walter was one of the pioneers in France to work in the glass industry during the art nouveau and art deco period with pâte de verre, a type of glass paste of different colors that was applied in a mold and fired at a temperature of approx. 1000 degrees. Before 1914 he worked for the Daum Frères company, and after the First World War he started his own company. and then developed objects in the art deco style while retaining the characteristics of the art nouveau. One of his most important designers was Henri Bergé.

This is a very rare Art Deco butterfly-shaped amulet with Indian motifs and a standing elephant in the center. On a white-gray frosted background we see in relief a brown accentuated palmette, brown flower buds and in the center an Indian Moorish window motif with a brown colored elephant. Very beautiful and special frame in the shape of a butterfly. The back is polished flat.

The object is marked with the in the mold in low relief with “AW”, standing for Amalric Walter.

The object is in perfect condition.
