Description
RENĂƒâ€° LALIQUE (Ay, France, 1860 - Paris, 1945).
Tray "Coquilles I". France, ca.1930
Translucent and opalescent cut glass.
Signed in the centre of the reverse "R. Lalique France, n.3009".
Very slight chipping on the side.
Work reproduced in "Le Catalogue RaisonnĂƒÂ© del L'Ouvre en Verre de R. Lalique", by Felix Marcilhac, Les Editions de l'Amateur, p. 701, no. 3009, with photo.
Procedure: Private Collection, Spain between 1970-1990.
Measurements: 30 cm (diameter); 4 cm (height).
Circular tray decorated with four reticulated shells. The piece is an exceptional combination of translucent and opalescent glass, the latter in a shade of blue in keeping with the marine theme.
The Lalique firm was originally founded by RenĂƒÂ© Jules Lalique (1860 - 1945), one of the foremost glassmakers of the time, and one of the first to sculpt glass for large monumental works such as the fountains on the Champs ElysĂƒÂ©es. He enjoyed great renown for his original creations of jewellery, perfume bottles, glasses, plates, etc., in the Art Nouveau and Art Deco styles. He trained with the Parisian jeweller Louis Aucoq, and then continued his studies at Sudenham Art College in London. The excellence of his creations and the taste he applied to his work earned him important commissions for the interior decoration of ships, trains such as the Orient Express, churches such as Saint-Nicasius in Reims, and numerous religious and civil goldsmiths' works. Lalique was not content with simply designing his models, but also founded a factory to produce them in large quantities, patenting several innovative glass manufacturing processes, and various technical effects such as "Lalique satin" or opalescent glass. Pieces by Lalique are preserved in prominent museums such as the Corning Museum of Glass and the Metropolitan Museum of Glass in New York, the Louvre and the Orsay Museum in Paris, among many others.
