Daum Cactus Decanter

Hilton McConnico

Designed by Hilton McConnico (1943–2018), the American-born artist and designer who moved to Paris in the 1960s and became known for his work across fashion, set design, and decorative arts. His collaboration with DAUM began in the late 1980s, where he embraced the historic pâte-de-verre technique and nature-inspired forms. The iconic Cactus Decanter combines a clear crystal bottle with a sculptural cactus-shaped stopper in glass-paste, blending functionality with refined artistic expression. It reflects McConnico’s signature storytelling sensibility and is a collectible example of contemporary French art glass.
