Charles Schneider started to design vases by himself after 1920. He developed a very personal genre, characterized by bright, powerful, contrasting colors and naturalistic and stylized motifs, perfectly symbolizing the Art Deco style of the interwar period. The company produces under two brands, Le Verre français and the Schneider line. The first is more accessible with 17 variations of shades against 32 at Schneider.
