"All inter-war pieces were produced in hardened glass and were (in most cases) signed 'R. Lalique France' in capitals (sometimes having just 'R. Lalique' as 'France' was for export pieces. Also a few examples were signed in script as well after final polishing and inspection. Consult reference books for details of the signatures.).
Whereas post-war to modern productions are of chrystal, the present day company is known as 'Cristal Lalique' and they are always signed 'Lalique France' (within a circled 'R' for registered) in scrolling script".


Very good condition, BUT FOR SOME REPOLISHING TO TIP OF TAIL FEATHERS.
