The original plaster version was bought by the founder Siot-Decauville and in 1893 produced in a single bronze cast the first version of The Waltz sometimes known as La  valse avec voiles. 
Claudel worked on modified versions of The Waltz from 1895 to 1898, removing the drapery around the dancers' heads to make their faces visible.   Claudel made several versions of this modified sculpture, with slightly differing poses, and presented sculptures to several of her friends and acquaintances, including Claude Debussy, Robert Godet and Frits Thaulow.
The founder and art dealer Eugène Blot bought the rights to reproduce the sculpture from Siot-Decauville around 1902, and also bought the unique bronze cast of the first version.  Blot sold this cast, and it was held in a private collection in Sweden until 1950, and then in another collection until sold at Sotheby's in June 2013, for £5,122,500.  Blot also made bronze casts of the second version in 1905; he envisioned an edition of 50, but only 25 were made.
In addition to the bronzes, other examples exist, including a green-glazed stoneware version, one of four versions exhibited together at the Musée Camille Claudel at Nogent-sur-Seine near Paris.
