Daum France Maya Collection: Small Platax Fish Sculpture
SKU 05812
Bring the silent, rhythmic beauty of the ocean into your home with the Daum Maya Small Platax Sculpture. This exquisite piece of French crystal art captures the "Platax" fish—the elegant dancer of the coral reef—in a moment of eternal marine movement. Small in stature but immense in artistic detail, this sculpture is a magnetic tribute to the wonders of the underwater world.
The Magic of Pâte de Verre Marine Art
Using the legendary Pâte de Verre (glass paste) technique, Daum craftsmen have transformed raw crystal into a translucent "miniature marine universe." Because this ancient kiln-casting method allows for precise control over color gradients, each Platax sculpture features a unique blend of transparencies and subtle hues that mimic the shimmering light found beneath the waves. The frosted, organic texture of the glass paste gives the fish a lifelike, ethereal quality that changes beautifully as natural light passes through it.
An Ode to Nature’s Fluidity
Inspired by the Maya reefs and the graceful silhouettes of tropical sea life, this "Petit Modèle" sculpture evokes the sensation of water in motion. Its compact dimensions make it a perfect accent for a sophisticated desk, a curated bookshelf, or as a luminous addition to a larger Daum collection. It is designed to invite quiet contemplation, acting as a poetic window into the depths of the sea.
Exceptional French Craftsmanship
Every Daum Maya Platax is handcrafted in Nancy, France, continuing a heritage of luxury crystal innovation that dates back to 1878. When you hold this piece, you are holding over a century of French "Savoir-Faire" and a passion for capturing the fleeting beauty of nature in a timeless, solid form.
