Daum Tulipe Vase Petit Modèle Ambre Rose 125ex SKU 05213-13 | Pâte de Verre | Gold Accents | 17cm | Limited Edition | Certificate of Authenticity | Nancy France | Brand New

WHY THIS VASE IS EXTRAORDINARILY SPECIAL

Some of the most beautiful things in the world are not the largest. They are not the most commanding. They are not the ones that fill a room with authority or anchor a space with the weight of their physical presence. They are the ones that reward closeness. That ask you to come near, to look carefully, to take them in your hands and turn them slowly in the light — and that reveal in that intimate encounter a quality of beauty, a depth of material complexity, and a completeness of artistic vision that the grandest and the most monumental objects in any collection rarely achieve with quite the same immediacy or quite the same personal resonance.

The Daum Tulipe Vase Petit Modèle in Ambre Rose — reference 05213-13, produced in a strictly limited edition of just 125 pieces worldwide, standing at 17 centimeters tall in the finest French pâte de verre crystal with hand-applied gold accents — is a piece that rewards closeness in exactly that way. Completely. Continuously. And in the specific warmth of its amber rose gradient palette — that luminous, romantically beautiful progression from deep amber at the base to the most delicate rose at the rim — with a quality of intimate visual richness that makes every encounter with this piece feel like a private, personal, quietly extraordinary discovery.

Maison Daum was established in Nancy, France in 1878 — the year that the Art Nouveau movement was gathering its most creative and most ambitious energy, and Nancy was at its very center. For nearly one hundred and fifty years, through every shift in artistic fashion, cultural taste, and decorative art preference, Daum has maintained its position at the absolute frontier of fine art crystal — the only house in the world capable of producing pâte de verre at this level of mastery, consistency, and artistic ambition. The evidence of that position is not simply the house's own claim. It is the permanent collections of the world's greatest museums — the Musée d'Orsay, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Victoria and Albert Museum — each of which holds Daum pieces as examples of fine decorative art of the highest institutional significance.

The Tulipe collection stands among the most celebrated and the most technically demanding achievements in Daum's entire floral portfolio. The concept at its heart is deceptively simple and completely extraordinary in its execution — the tulip is not depicted on the vase. The tulip IS the vase. Daum reinvents a baroque tulip, with delicately sublimated petals — a contemporary reading of the tulip, with generous and bewitching forms. Daum The graceful curves of the flower's chalice become the form of the vessel. The petal edges become the rim. The slender neck becomes the vase's neck. Every curve, every proportion, every element of the composition is drawn directly from the specific botanical reality of the tulip in the moment of its most complete and its most perfectly balanced expression. The result is a piece that is simultaneously a faithful botanical study, rendered with the fidelity of a great natural history illustration, and a completely extraordinary work of fine art crystal that rewards aesthetic contemplation on its own terms entirely independent of its botanical subject.

The ambre rose gradient that defines SKU 05213-13 is achieved through one of the most technically demanding and the most visually extraordinary processes in Daum's craft tradition. The gradient coloring process — invented by the House of Daum and applied with millimeter precision to the mineral oxides blended into the crystal paste at every stage of the mold-filling process — creates a color that lives within the crystal rather than on its surface. The amber at the base is deep, warm, and possessed of a golden inner glow that the pâte de verre technique uniquely enables. The rose that develops toward the rim is delicate, luminous, and possessed of a specific femininity and romantic warmth that no other color in the Tulipe palette approaches. Between base and rim the gradient moves through the most subtle and the most beautiful progression of amber and rose tones that the house's mineral oxide expertise can achieve — a progression that looks different from every angle and in every light condition, that reveals new aspects of its beauty at every hour of the day, and that gives the piece a quality of living, continuously rewarding visual richness that flat-colored or surface-decorated alternatives simply cannot approach.

At 17 centimeters tall and 12 centimeters across, the Petit Modèle fits naturally and beautifully in the most intimate personal spaces — a dressing table, a bedside surface, a writing desk, a bathroom shelf, a windowsill where the light will fall through the amber rose crystal and project its colors across the surrounding surfaces in a shifting, shimmering daily display of natural crystal beauty. Signed Daum France, with presentation case, bag, and certificate of authenticity. Daum

The hand-applied gold accents — applied by specialist gilders in the Daum Nancy atelier who follow the exact outline of each petal fold with the patience and the precision of jewelers working at the finest level of their craft — give the piece a quality of genuine preciousness entirely appropriate to its intimate scale. At 17 centimeters the gold work is particularly impressive precisely because of the scale at which it must be achieved — the precision required to follow the contours of each petal curve with consistent, beautiful gold at this intimate dimension reflects a level of gilder skill that is simply extraordinary.

125 pieces. Worldwide. Total. Ever. In the context of Daum's global collector base this is genuine, meaningful, and permanent scarcity. When these 125 pieces have been placed with their owners, the amber rose Petit Modèle will cease to exist as a purchasable object. What remains available today will be impossible to replace tomorrow.
