This is a late 20th century Daum, Nancy, large and heavy paté de verre stand and lead crystal egg clock sculpture
The sculpture is in excellent condition. It shows minimal age related wear and tear to the rim of the base consistent with use.
The sculpture is in two pieces, a stand in the form of two large frogs on lily pads supporting a further concave lily pad on which the egg-like crystal clock rests. A further small frog sits on one of the lower lily pads. The frogs are cast in various hues of green and amethyst. The small clock sits within an ovoid lead crystal ball on which a further frog in green and amber sits. The base measures 18.2 cm (7.3 inches) in width at its widest point. The crystal ball holds a small Daum clock which does not currently work. We don’t have the skills required to get it working. The top section is 19 cm (7.6 inches) in height. When in place on the stand they collectively measure 25.5 cm (10.2 inches). There are no chips, cracks, significant scratches or any obvious evidence of restoration. The words “Daum France” are etched onto the edge of the base in lower case script. It does not come in its original box.
It weighs in at 4.79 kg. (~ 10 lb. 9 oz.).
