This stunning Mid Century Modern translucent crystal centerpiece bowl was realized by the storied maker Daum in France circa 1950. It offers a stylized amorphic form with three pointed arms extending in opposite directions. One of the arms point forward, while the other two arms point backwards in a forked pattern suggesting a stylized and whimsical interpretation of a swallow's tail. This piece- executed in superlative clear crystal- is full of subtle dynamism and verve, and suggests a "splash" of water. Daum throughout history demonstrated the ability to capture crystal- a solid medium- in a way that suggested utter fluidity, a truly impressive feat. This piece is a great testament to their masterful abilities and perennially appealing aesthetic. While this piece is a perfectly functional centerbowl- ideal for presenting votives or flower petals- it is also an objet d'art in its own right, that promises to beautify any surface that it graces. It is signed Daum and is in excellent vintage condition.
France, circa 1950
