About:
Daum, the legendary glassmaker master, has kept alive for more than a century a love relationship with the greatest artists of its time, giving their work of art a second life of crystal and colors. With The Ecole de Nancy, The Art Nouveau, The Art Deco, Majorelle, Dali, Arman, and Hilton McConnico, Daum has not missed any of the magical encounters of artistic creation and modern know-how. These prestigious signatures and periods have constantly renewed the alliance of art and artistic craftsmanship.
Few brands have worked with as many artists: for nearly 140 years, more than 350 unique signatures have constituted a heritage beyond compare, a unique collection.
