Marie-Paule Deville-Chabrolle for Daum Athena Limited Edition Crystal Sculpture

About the Item

This pâte de verre crystal sculpture was designed by French sculptor Marie-Paule Deville-Chabrolle (b. 1952) and hand made by Daum in Nancy, France. The piece, titled Athena, was produced in a limited number of 375 pieces, with this being edition number 53. The sculpture features shades of blue and pink crystal with Daum's characteristic entrapped bubbles and depicts a bare-shouldered female dressed in a loose robe which falls in folds around her kneeling form. The woman's face has a serene contemplative expression and connotes a sense of calm centeredness. According to company literature, "Daum's expertise brings a truly original dimension to each piece. The subtle play of colors and entrapped bubbles gives every piece its individuality, conferring on it its own unique character. No two Daum pieces are exactly alike, they are similar yet different." The sculpture bears the artist's signature along with manufacturer name "Daum France" and is hand numbered "32/375". A lovely object.
