Emile Galle expressed his artistry by experimenting with various techniques. The butterflies on the surface of this flower vase are inserted by a kind of "glass marquetry". A colored glass butterfly is fused onto the surface of the vase and smoothed by heating. This technique produces a decorative effect comparable to wood-worked marquetry. In this object, pale yellow glass simulates the veins of leaves.
