Lexicon: Art Object ft the 'Crest of the Dawn' from the Masterpiece Séries

Updated: Sep 9

At my last art fair, I found myself standing among towering sculptures — bold forms in bronze, and wood. It was almost exclusively a sculptor’s space, and there I was: the only stand offering crystal art objects.


At first, it felt strange. I wondered if I truly belonged among the giants of form and material. But then came the unexpected — attention and praise. Curators, collectors, and fairgoers alike noted that my presentation was a carefully curated exception. In an almost all-sculptural fair, I offered something different: the Art Object.

For me, this was a moment of clarity. At CARMELO Paris, I’ve always believed that my pieces are not simply decorative items. They are Art Objects — intentional presence in a room, created with the devotion of bespoke crystal artistry. Over time, they found their truest definition: Bespoke Crystal Art Objects.

What makes them Art Objects? By CARMELO Paris’ own definition:

  • They hold memory and movement, beyond mere form.

  • They are designed not only to be admired, but to be lived with.

  • They carry both beauty and devotion, shaped by natural gemstones and poetic craftsmanship.


The African Bird Crystal Masterpiece Séries embodies this definition most vividly. A flamingo in pink quartz, or a heron in clear quartz — each bird is not just a sculpture, nor just a decorative piece.


They are Art Objects because they exist in between: sculptural in mastery, yet devotional in presence. Each one reflects both the artistry of intentional design and the spirituality of crystal energy. And perhaps that is where CARMELO Paris belongs: not strictly sculpture, not simply decoration — but the rare language of the Art Object.
