Eternal rose in powder pink color - Daum brand

The rose was an inspiration for Daum's creations from the Art Nouveau period, at the height of forms evoking a free and delicate nature. It is available alone or in bouquets, precisely sculpted, in constantly changing shades of color. The crystal paste reflects its silky and delicate nature with great elegance. This season, the Eternelle rose is adorned with a delicate powder pink, harmoniously blending with its finely sculpted stem in pink-gold finish.

Daum is a top-quality artisanal craft combined with a passion for creating exclusive objects.

Discover the history

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 never missed a magical encounter between artistic creativity and modern knowledge, continually renewing the union of art and true craftsmanship.

Few brands have collaborated with so many artists: over nearly 140 years, more than 350 exceptional autographs have created an unparalleled legacy, a unique collection of its kind.

How can we translate these works into crystal sculptures? Here is Daum's secret: a creator of extraordinary objects, a highly educated workshop, a laboratory of wonders, a designer of beautiful items.

Creation methods

The crystal paste technique is rare and very ancient. It appeared as early as 5000 BC (found in the tombs of pharaohs). Long forgotten, it was rediscovered by Daum in 1900 and further developed in 1968. This process is extremely delicate. Items produced by combining pieces of crystal mixed in a mold are characterized by graininess, materiality, and softness of contours, which cannot be achieved with blown glass.

Daum's specialty, copied but never matched, is the crystal paste, 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 subdued shades give it a distinctive character.

Crystal paste contains nearly 30% lead. The material is made 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 rise, and cooling of the furnaces.

Thanks to the crystal casting and the lost-wax casting method developed by Daum, reproducing 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 glassmaking masters' imagination. It is through mastery and continuous research that world-renowned masterpieces are born.
