Andre Delatte
Fish and underwater scene Cameo Glass
At first glance Delatte Cameo Glass can be confused with Daum.
Amdre Delatte started in 1921 in Nancy.
A Specialist French Glassmaker who worked mostly with Cameo Glass from his Glass works in Nancy France.
Delatte specialised in acid etched cameo glass but got into several lawsuits after he produced
a number of cameo pieces with a remarkable similarity to those of Daum .
At that time each glassmaker vied to produced new pieces and to pick up the latest trend of what customers were buying.

Most of Delattes pieces are acid etched rather than the usual wheel cut or carved pieces houses like Daum produced.
He did however make lovely later sand blasted monochrome pieces and some rather appealing bowls and vases that have excellent Art Deco enamels.
Delatte also made lighting fixtures and Bohemian-style opaline glass pieces.
He also made work including dragonflies and pastoral vases and bowls similar to Daum ones .
Early Delatte was always signed either with ADelatte or ADelatte Nancy but may be mistaken for Daum.
His monochrome vases have the mark Javril.
I think this is a great tip for the future and prices are fairly low when considered against Daum
