The item has been made in the form of a bowl with thick walls, the exterior of which are decorated with an intricate relief design featuring a series of detailed finches among arched, overlapping leaves with serrated edges.
The bowl is in excellent condition with no chips, cracks or repairs and shows no sign of use. The bowl stands 9 cm tall and is 23.5 cm the mouth. The foot is signed "Lalique France" in script.
Company founder René Lalique began his career as a jeweler in 1881, and went on to establish himself as a glassmaker specializing in the use of clear and frosted glass. Like many other Art Nouveau artists of the time, his designs were heavily influenced by nature and mythological figures. Birds were a particularly favored motif, and were the subject of paperweights and bookends as well as being incorporated into the design of bowls and vases among other items.
This elegant bird motif bowl displays beautifully and would be a wonderful addition to a collection of vintage Lalique, or works equally well as a stand alone decorative accent. A beautiful piece.
