Description

The Nymph “Cleia” is a striking contemporary sculpture cast from premium pink Czech crystal glass, a material prized by collectors for its clarity, weight, and luminous depth. Standing 42 cm tall, Cleia’s face emerges from fluid, wing‑like forms, capturing the ethereal presence of the Hyades nymphs of Greek mythology.


The polished back surface intensifies the internal glow of the crystal, allowing light to travel through the sculpture and reveal delicate contours, textures, and mythic symbolism. Mounted on a handmade metal base, this 9‑kg artwork has the presence and gravitas expected of high‑end collectible glass sculpture.


Cleia represents transformation, protection, and the rain‑bringing nature of the Hyades — nymphs who nurtured Zeus himself. This fusion of mythology and refined glass craftsmanship makes Cleia a standout piece for private collectors, museum‑level curators, and international galleries seeking contemporary works that merge narrative depth with material excellence.


A unique, one‑of‑a‑kind crystal casting, Cleia is both a sculptural jewel and a timeless myth brought into modern form.
