Total Height: 84 cm Cup diameter: 47 cm Total diameter: 88 cm Louis Katona was a French ironworker who was born in 1850.The artist died in 1933. Daum (French establishment created in 1878) is a glass and crystal workshop located in Nancy. Founded by the industrialist and notary Jean Daum, the workshop was then taken over by his sons Auguste and Antonin, who managed it during the Art Nouveau period. It was only from the Universal Exhibition of 1900 that the company placed itself at the forefront of decorative art, when Daum received the prestigious Grand Prix medal. At this time, Daum glass becomes more complex, acid treatment is often used in cutting, glazing and engraving a piece to produce glass masterpieces. Daum also makes applied glass elements, such as handles and ornamental designs in naturalistic shapes. The Daum brothers quickly became big names in Art Nouveau, rivaling the famous designer Émile Gallé, and established themselves as leaders in the field of decorative glass after his death. In 1906, Daum revived glass paste, a process by which glass is transformed into paste, then it is applied to the surface of a mold and fired. This technique has its origins in ancient Egypt. Today, Daum is the only industrial crystal manufacturer that uses the glass paste process for its glass objects and crystal sculptures. Following the First World War, Paul Daum began to develop works in the Art Deco style, moving away from naturalistic forms and turning towards linear, angular, simplified forms and geometric patterns characteristic of movement. After the Second World War, Henri and Michel Daum became interested in the transparency of glass and pure lines. Daum collaborates with a large number of famous artists, such as Louis Majorelle, Salvador Dalí, Hilton Mac Connico, Elizabeth Garouste and Mattia Bonetti to create objects in glass paste.
