Bio:
François-Théodore Legras (1839–1916) established his glassworks in the late 19th century, and the company continued after his death under the name Légras. The factory became one of the most significant producers of Art Nouveau and Art Deco glass, particularly known for etched, engraved, and painted decorations. Légras vases are highly collectible today and represent an important chapter in French glass history.
