Daum signature (without France)

(1/2) > >>

dn:
Please help!  I have an auction on ebay and I received an email telling me this is a fake.  It is a Daum Crystal Dolphin my uncle purchased from Neiman Marcus in Dallas around 1972.  I was told this is not a Daum signature and that the piece is badly done. If you have any knowledge on this piece please let me know.  I don't want to sell a fake and will pull the auction.

The item is listed as "Daum Crystal Dolphin with Stand
Thanks for any help.

Hi

Kind regards Tony H in NZ

I have a dozen pieces of Daum crystal from the 50s-70s and they are ALL signed "Daum France" - even the tiny salt cellars. So a large dolphin with just "Daum" would be suspicious.

Anonymous:
Can't access larger picture so can't really tell.  Daum did make a large leaping dolphin on a chrome stand like this, in the seventies. They used to retail for about £250 in those days.

Thanks Tony for the website, but unfortunately it only has pre war trade mark for Daum.
Ivo, I am afraid you are right.  I've searched the web and can not find anything with just "Daum".
Thanks for writing.
