Description
Returning to the origins of production, Plum'ky is made from glass paste, not crystal paste. This is the culmination of many years of research to offer our customers a product whose colors, density, and appearance closely resemble the current material, while respecting the evolution of environmental standards and European regulations.
The pen is gilded with gold leaf, serving as a delicate display piece, perfect as a table or shelf decoration and an excellent gift option for the end of the year. The white and gold colors evoke the spirit of Christmas. This product does not have a food certification due to the gold leaf gilding. However, our customers notice no difference, as the manufacturing process remains unchanged, and the distinctive features of glass paste remain very similar to those of crystal paste, with everything signed by the artist's initials.
Add a touch of sophistication to your holiday decorations with this delicate element, ideal for decorating a table or shelf. The shades of white and gold evoke a warm, festive Christmas atmosphere, making this item a perfect holiday gift.
Daum is the highest quality craftsmanship combined with a passion for creating exclusive objects.
Discover the history
Daum, the legendary 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, continuously 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 this kind.
How can we translate these works into crystal sculptures? Here is Daum’s secret: a creator of extraordinary objects, highly trained artisans, a laboratory of wonders, a designer of fascinating 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 then refined in 1968. The process is extremely delicate. Items produced by combining pieces of crystal mixed in molds are characterized by graininess, materiality, and soft contours that cannot be achieved with blown glass.
Daum’s signature, 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 produced from specially prepared crystal in kilns. Several factors influence the final color: weighing of materials, mixture proportions, chemical reactions of certain minerals and metals, temperature rise, and cooling in furnaces.
Thanks to Daum’s lost-wax casting method and crystal casting process, the reproduction of the original is perfect and aligned 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 continuous research that world-renowned masterpieces are born.
