Daum is a crystal studio based in Nancy, France, founded in 1878 by master glass craftsman Jean Daum (1825-1885). His sons, Auguste Daum (1853-1909) and Antonin Daum (1864-1931), oversaw its growth during the burgeoning Art Nouveau period. During the Universal Exhibition of 1900 Daum was awarded a ‘Grand Prix’ medal. Daum glass became more elaborate in the early 1900s as acid etching by Jacques Grüber was often combined with carving, enameling, and engraving on solid pieces of glass. The most complicated creations also featured applied glass elements, such as handles and ornamental motifs in naturalistic forms. When Émile Gallé died in 1904 the Daum brothers became the leaders in the field of decorative glass. In 1906 Daum revived pâte de verre (glass paste), an ancient Egyptian technique of glass casting in which crushed glass is packed into a refractory mold and then fused in a kiln. The brothers perfected the method so that by the 1930s Daum window panels using pâte de verre for richness instead of leaded or painted glass were the most common feature in most buildings in Nancy. Today Daum is one of the only crystal manufacturers still employing the pâte de verre process for art glass and crystal sculptures. All their pieces are still handmade by hundreds of employees at the main manufacturing location in downtown Nancy, as well as an auxiliary plant in a nearby village called Vannes-le-Châtel. Daum has a store at Place Stanislas in Nancy and on Park Avenue in New York City. A traveling exhibition began in Carmaux in 2010 based on works by Georges Braque and Salvador Dali, and its rich history of collaboration with hundreds of artists including Arman, Philippe Starck, Cyril Phan, and Henri Berge can be found in the Daum Collection at the Museum of Fine Arts of Nancy (Nancy Musée des Beaux-Arts), which holds over 600 items. In 2017 a small Art Nouveau Daum cameo glass vase, characterized as Egyptian Revival style, was appraised at approximately $15,000, reflecting both its artistic merit and rarity and indicating the important place Daum holds in the history of art glass.
Good.
