Daum, the Marco Polo of glassmaking

 

Sophie Le Tanneur de Rancourt, Chairman of the Board at Daum
 

"Daum is one of the few brands that can lay claim to an artistic heritage worldwide. Since 1878, Daum has been producing decorative items that are placed in museums and the homes of great collectors. They are attracted by the creativity of the brand, the perpetual revival of nature as subject matter from the Art Nouveau style of the 1900s and, of course, the great signatures of the many sculptors who have worked with the company e.g.Dali, Arman, César,Manolo Valdes and Chen Changwei more recently!
Our master glassmakers have achieved wonderful things. Just look at our palm tree collection and the nuances in the colours, or the folds and ripples in the glass."

" In some ways,we are the “Marco Polo of Art”. We offer a clientele of aesthetes the finest sculptures of our time. For 2007,we have a number of projects scheduled e.g.we shall be releasing little-known sculptures by George Braque.We shall also be launching a new ultra modern “Black and White” collection with items that are unexpected from Daum but which, as always, reveal the finesse and accuracy of our animal sculptures.

Finally,we shall be opening a boutique in Hong-Kong. In fact,we actually export 75% of our production ".
