The bronze press-paper dating to 1990–2000 from France measures about 10 × 10 × 3 cm, is in excellent condition with minimal wear, and features the Dom Pérignon shield in relief with the inscription “Moët et Chandon à Épernay – Fondée en 1743 – Champagne Cuvée Dom Pérignon Vintage.”
Description from the seller
Born in 1743 in the heart of Épernay, Moët & Chandon has embodied for nearly three centuries the absolute excellence of champagne. Its mythical cuvée, Dom Pérignon – a tribute to the visionary monk who shaped the soul of Champagne in the 17th century – has become the universal emblem of sparkling luxury.
On every bottle, the heraldic shield engraved, with its central star and the inscription « Moët et Chandon à Épernay – Fondée en 1743 », remains one of the most coveted symbols in the world of wine and the French art of living.
This solid bronze paperweight, rare and authentic, translates this iconic shield into a three-dimensional sculpture with remarkable presence. Designed as an official promotional piece and reserved for a small circle of privileged partners, it is no longer produced today – making it a sought-after collector's item, a witness to a vanished know-how.
The bronze, patinated naturally by time, reveals a golden warmth and a depth of material that reinforce its vintage and exclusive character. The base, also in bronze, is lined with a protective felt, allowing an elegant display on a desk, a bookshelf or a tasting space.
More than a simple accessory, it is a fragment of the House's history, a piece of prestige that evokes the Dom Pérignon universe: rarity, heritage, sensuality of materials and timeless excellence.
