Description: An amber 'pâte-de-verre' figurine by Jean-Francois Leroy for DAUM GLASSWORKS of Nancy, France. A tribute to Ourasi (1980–2013)—the chestnut French Trotter whose late '80s victories included three consecutive 'Prix d'Amérique.' Its distinctive character derives from the astonishing polychromy of the medium. Please note that every piece of handmade crystal is unique. Signed "Daum, France” The mastery of various techniques set DAUM apart from the others. The impressive 'pâte-de-verre,' or glass paste method involves grinding glass into fine powder and adding binder to create a paste and fluxing medium to facilitate melting. The paste is then brushed or tamped into a mold, dried, and fused by firing in a kiln (at about 700° Celsius). The processes were known to the glassmaker of ancient Egypt.
