Durand Definition

The term "Durand" is used to refer to art glasses made between 1924 and 1931. In 1897, Victor Durand and Victor Durand, Jr. established the Vineland Flint Glass Works company. In 1924, other artisans from the Quezal Glassworks and Martin Bach, Jr. grouped together at the Vineland, New Jersey. They made Durand art glass at this plant. Durant was produced by a division of Vineland Flint Glass Works.  Durand art glass is appreciated by collectors worldwide for its beauty and quality. It is worth noting that early Durand glasses were not signed.  However, the pieces produced later were marked in different ways. Durand created an extensive variety of art glass items including bowls, vases, perfume bottles, candlesticks, and lamps. Durands were found in yellow hues.
