The work features a geometric and sculptural structure masterfully modeled in solid crystal, characterized by undulating volumes and sharp cuts that reflect and refract light with great purity.
The surfaces alternate perfectly polished areas with satinées sections, creating a refined material contrast that enhances the depth and brilliance of the crystal.
At the center of the composition is inserted a cobalt blue glass sphere, an iconic element of the Daum language, which introduces a vibrant focal point and adds visual tension to the dynamic form of the object.
The balance between the linearity of the edges and the softness of the concave curves reveals the ability of the French manufactory to transform crystal into contemporary sculptural matter.
Signed Daum France on the side, the work represents a perfect example of the brand’s artistic production in the 1980s, a period characterized by experimentation with architectural volumes and essential chromatic contrasts.
Decorative object of great presence, ideal for collectors of artistic glass and for high-end modern interiors.
Perfect condition. Absolutely no chipping of the glass.
