Additional Information :

One of the world’s finest plagiarists. Delatte was unsuccessfully sued in 1925 for copying Daum’s berluze designs. Thankfully for Delatte as the designs were based on ancient drinking bottles the judge found in his favour. It is. however. a stretch to say that it was the ancient designs Delatte was copying. these are incredibly similar to those produced by Daum. Beautiful nonetheless.
