Description
Daum is expanding its renowned Cavalcade collection with two new sophisticated items, available in an elegant frosted brown shade: a pencil holder and a pen case. Inspired by the equestrian world, these exceptional accessories combine the delicacy of crystal with a subtle play of refined hues, where frosted brown harmonizes with grey and pinkish reflections. A true testament to Daum’s exceptional craftsmanship, each piece is made using the traditional lost-wax casting technique, revealing subtle variations and unparalleled depth.
Daum is a high-quality artisanal craft combined with a passion for creating luxurious objects.
Discover the story
Daum, the legendary master glassmaker who for over a century has maintained close relationships with the greatest artists of his time, giving their works a second life in crystal and color. From École de Nancy, Art Nouveau, to decorative arts, from Majorelle to Dalí, Arman, and Hilton McConnico, Daum has embraced every magical encounter between artistic creativity and modern knowledge, continually renewing the union of art and exceptional craftsmanship.
Few brands have collaborated with so many artists: over nearly 140 years, more than 350 unique autographs have created an unmatched legacy, a one-of-a-kind collection of this kind.
How can we translate these works into crystal sculptures? Here is Daum’s secret: a creator of extraordinary objects, with a highly skilled workshop, a laboratory of wonders, and a designer of beautiful objects.
Creation methods
The crystal paste technique is rare and very ancient. This technique dates back to 5000 BC (found in the tombs of pharaohs). Long forgotten, it was rediscovered by Daum in 1900 and further developed in 1968. The process is extremely delicate. Products made by combining pieces of crystal mixed in molds feature graininess, material richness, and soft contours that cannot be achieved with blown glass.
Daum’s signature, copied but never matched, the crystal paste, is a precious material that gives the object a sculptural dimension and continues to evolve. Crystal paste has the unique property of imparting transparency to the shapes it reproduces. The shine of this material, the intensity of colors, and the muted shades give it a distinctive character.
Crystal paste contains nearly 30% lead. The material is produced from specially prepared crystal in pots. Several factors influence the final color effect: weighing of materials, mixture proportions, chemical reactions of certain minerals and metals, temperature increase, and cooling of the furnaces.
Thanks to Daum’s crystal casting and lost-wax casting method, the reproduction of the original is perfect and in accordance with the artist’s wishes. Currently, Daum is the only crystal manufacturer in the world capable of creating this exceptional material with such precision. Crystal paste is a substance that has been evolving for over a century, adapting to the whims of master glassmakers’ imagination. It is through mastery and ongoing research that world-renowned masterpieces are born.
