Daum Jean-Philippe Richard Charlotte Blue and Pink – Limited Edition of 175
Elevate your collection with Charlotte Bleue et Rose, a monumental masterpiece by the internationally acclaimed sculptor Jean-Philippe Richard for Maison Daum. Standing at a breathtaking height of nearly 4.5 feet, this sculpture is one of the tallest and most ambitious works ever executed by the historic French atelier. It represents a sublime meeting of artisanal mastery and poetic emotion, capturing the essence of independent femininity in a dreamlike fusion of sky-blue and sunrise-pink crystal.
The Art of Timeless Femininity Jean-Philippe Richard is renowned for his threadlike feminine silhouettes that emerge from raw material with grace and independence. In this specific edition, the body of Charlotte is crafted from Pâte de Cristal, a centuries-old lost-wax technique that Daum alone has perfected. The crystal transitions seamlessly between ethereal blue and tender pink, mimicking the soft light of a spring twilight. The figure is supported by a blue-patinated bronze base, providing a grounding, metallic contrast to the translucent, living crystal above.
Why This Item Is So Special
Ultra-Rare Art Investment: This work is part of an extremely exclusive Limited Edition of only 175 pieces worldwide. Owning this piece signifies membership in an elite circle of art collectors; its rarity ensures it remains a high-value asset that commands respect in the secondary art market.
A Monumental Gallery Presence: At 138 cm (54.3 inches) tall and weighing a staggering 136 lbs, this is not a figurine—it is a museum-quality floor sculpture. It is designed to be the definitive focal point of a luxury entryway, a grand salon, or a high-end private gallery.
Exceptional Technical Achievement: Producing a sculpture of this scale in Pâte de Cristal is a feat of extreme difficulty. The 17-day firing process and the meticulous placement of mineral pigments ensure that no two pieces are exactly alike, making your Charlotte a unique original with its own specific internal fire.
The Richard and Daum Legacy: Jean-Philippe Richard is a master of the feminine form. His collaboration with Daum is a dialogue between the fragility of crystal and the strength of the female spirit, resulting in a work that is both contemporary and timeless.
Mastery of Light: Daum’s secret living crystal technique allows for a richness of color and a play of light that traditional glass cannot replicate. The nuanced transparencies of the figure capture and diffuse ambient light, creating a fascinating, magnetic aura that changes throughout the day.
