FROM : THE GLASS ENCYCLOPEDIA The brothers left Daum around 1912, and recommissioned an old glassworks under the name Schneider Freres et Wolff (Schneider Brothers and Wolff), a few miles north of Paris in 1913. Henri Wolff was an architect friend of Charles Schneider. Initially they made high quality cameo vases and lamps, but the war in Europe (1914-1918) led Charles and Ernest and most of their skilled glassworkers away to fight in the war. They returned and re-opened their glassworks in 1917 to make glassware needed for hospitals, and after the war they sold shares in the company to finance getting back into the art glass market. At that time the company was called the Societe Anonyme des Verreries Schneider. Charles Schneider was a brilliant and versatile designer, and the company produced a wide range of superb designs of vases, ewers, bowls, and lamps. They were very successful in market ing their glass to major high prestige retail stores both in Paris and overseas. They bought back their shares and re-named the company Verrerie Schneider. Virtually all their pieces are marked with the name SCHNEIDER or with one of their other trademarks, which include "CHARDER", "Le Verre Francais", a two handled ewer (carrier handled) sketch, and a piece of blue, white and red glass cane. Le Verre Francais was the name used by the Schneiders for a special line of 2 or 3-layered cameo glass vases, bowls, ewers, lamps etc. in a style which combined art deco and art nouveau features. This line was first introduced in 1918 and was sold in their own retail gallery in Paris , run by their sister Ernestine. FREE UPS GROUND SHIPPING WITHIN CONTINENTAL USA, WITH BUY IT NOW OPTION.
