Daum "White Rhinoceros" Sculpture by Jean-François Leroy – Limited Edition
Immerse yourself in the majesty of the African plains with the White Rhinoceros by Jean-François Leroy, a breathtaking expression of "eternal movement" in living crystal. Crafted by the legendary House of Daum France, this sculpture captures the imposing and peaceful presence of one of nature's most powerful creatures, making it a definitive statement piece for any sophisticated art collection.
The Mastery of Pate de Verre This sculpture is brought to life using Pate de Verre (glass paste), an ancient and complex kiln-casting technique that Daum has spent over a century perfecting. Hand-crafted from pure white glass paste, the material allows for a mesmerizing play of light and transparency, highlighting the massive, muscular body of the rhinoceros with astonishing precision. Unlike traditional glass, this method creates a unique, sculptural depth that captures the soul of the animal in every curve.
