Daum Balthazar Horse Amber and Grey – Limited Edition of 275 by Jean-Louis Sauvat – SKU: 05152
Experience the powerful majesty of the equestrian world with the Daum Balthazar Horse. Created by the acclaimed French artist and master of equine anatomy, Jean-Louis Sauvat, this monumental crystal sculpture is a profound celebration of strength, nobility, and spirit. Handcrafted in Nancy, France, using the rare and historic Pate de Verre (glass paste) technique, this limited edition captures the muscular tension and eternal movement of the horse in a breathtaking blend of amber and grey crystal.
Artistic Mastery in Bi-Color Crystal Jean-Louis Sauvat is world-renowned for his ability to translate the soul of the horse into art. In this collaboration with Daum, the Balthazar Horse is rendered with incredible precision, from the arch of the neck to the flow of the mane. The unique fusion of amber and grey tones creates a sophisticated atmosphere of mystery, as the two colors bleed into one another during the intense firing process, creating organic patterns that mirror the natural beauty of a living creature.
