AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Daum France – “Bear and Cub” – Multicolored glass paste sculpture
Delightful animal sculpture from the house Daum France, depicting a bear accompanied by its cub in a protective and endearing pose.
The piece is executed in polychrome glass paste, Daum’s emblematic technique, in beautiful shades of translucent green, with deeper amber-leaning variations, as well as delicate pink/purple touches especially visible on the ears. Light passes through the material and reveals the full richness of the modeling, giving the sculpture a particularly warm presence.
The relief work is highly detailed: the fur of the two bears is finely textured, the volumes are expressive, and the composition forms a beautiful compact and balanced whole. A refined decorative piece, characteristic of Daum’s bestiary and French glassmaking know-how.
