Description from the seller

Egyptian cat – Daum France

Iconic sculpture in clear crystal, this Egyptian cat signed Daum France embodies with strength the timeless elegance and symbolic power of ancient Egyptian iconography. Standing at a remarkable height of 16 cm (width 6 cm, length 7 cm), this piece stands out due to its particularly large size for this theme, making it a rare and highly sought-after object.

The slender silhouette, seated with nobility, evokes the sacred representations of the cat, a revered and protective animal in Egyptian civilization. The crystal, of luminous purity, is crafted with exceptional mastery: the lines are fluid, the volumes subtly polished, and the play of light highlights each curve with depth and sensuality. The stylized gaze and the hieratic posture give the whole an almost mystical presence.

Produced by the prestigious Maison Daum, an absolute reference in French art crystal since the late 19th century, this work showcases the expertise of the master glassmakers of Nancy, renowned for their bold and refined sculptural creations.

The piece is in excellent condition, showing only minor signs of use, discreet and consistent with its age (see images), with no shine or restoration.

A rare collectible object, at the crossroads of decorative art, symbolism, and luxury, this Egyptian cat by Daum will naturally find its place in a prestigious crystal collection or as a centerpiece in an elegant, contemporary interior.
