Maison Schott 'Ecole de Nancy'

SCHOTT House. Tour of an Art Nouveau "Nancy School" veranda

The stained-glass window by glass artist Antoine BERTIN dates from 1900. Made of plain glass and acid-etched glass set in lead, and decorated with orchids, nasturtiums, poppies, clematis, tulips, and irises, in shades of green, purple, blue, and yellow; this piece is considered a precursor to the stained-glass art of the École de Nancy. The building’s architecture, woodwork, and ironwork still adhere to an earlier traditional style. In contrast, the interior decoration features murals in a floral style that was already quite innovative, expressing the themes and motifs of the École de Nancy.
The house is open to visitors year-round by appointment or during special events (50-minute guided tour).

It is recommended to make an appointment for safety reasons.
