The Muller nine brothers and one sister set up their own workshop in 1895 after the eldest two had trained with Gallé. The Mullers constantly experimented with decorative techniques. Expert carvers, they would use the wheel to obtain the subtlest effects. The company ceased production of decorative glass in 1914 at the outbreak of the first World War, but continued making commercial lightfittings until 1933.
