Bio:
Pierre d’Avesn (1901–1990) worked extensively in both coloured and clear pressed glass, known for bold reliefs, geometric patterning and distinctive forms. His pieces—often echoing Art Deco influences while continuing into the postwar period—are today sought after for their craftsmanship and unmistakable aesthetic.
