Daum Jean-No Silverback Gorilla – Blue-Grey – Limited Edition of 125 – SKU: 05703-1

Experience the breathtaking fusion of raw power and ethereal beauty with the Daum Silverback Gorilla. Created by the acclaimed sculptor Jean-No, this monumental crystal masterpiece captures the majestic spirit and quiet authority of the wild’s most powerful primate. Handcrafted in Nancy, France, using the legendary Pate de Verre (glass paste) technique, this piece is rendered in a sophisticated Blue-Grey palette that creates a magnetic, life-like presence in any luxury environment.

Mastery of French Glass Art The unique visual character of Daum crystal is achieved through a centuries-old lost-wax process. The Blue-Grey hues are infused into the crystal while in a molten state, resulting in a complex color gradient that captures and refracts light through its substantial form. Every muscle, every detail of the gorilla’s fur, and its piercing, thoughtful expression are frozen in crystal, creating a striking visual effect that is both imposing and deeply moving.

Why This Item Is So Special

• Ultra-Rare Limited Edition: This sculpture is part of a strictly Limited Edition of only 125 pieces worldwide. Daum’s animalier collection is highly sought after by international collectors; a series this small ensures that the piece is a significant investment that will remain a rare treasure on the global art market.

• The Rare Blue-Grey Palette: While earth tones are common, this Blue-Grey edition offers a cool, contemporary aesthetic. The "silverback" effect is achieved through the masterful manipulation of crystal transparencies, making it a standout piece for modern luxury interiors.

• Monumental Size and Weight: Standing at 13 inches tall and weighing a massive 30.42 lbs (13.8 kg), this is one of Daum’s most physically impressive works. Its sheer scale and density convey the true power of a silverback gorilla, making it an undeniable centerpiece for an executive office or a luxury estate.

• The Pate de Verre Fingerprint: Because of the complex kiln-firing process used in Pate de Verre, no two gorillas are identical. The way the blue and grey pigments settle is unique to each casting, meaning you are acquiring a one-of-a-kind original that cannot be replicated.

• A Symbol of Wisdom and Protection: The silverback gorilla is the ultimate symbol of leadership, family protection, and quiet strength. This sculpture is more than a decorative object; it is a powerful statement of character and a tribute to the conservation of nature’s most magnificent creatures.
