Description :

Offered here is a stunning and rare pair of Lalique crystal snail figurines, known as the "Helix" model. The pair includes one in a translucent frosted green glass and one in a clear frosted glass. These intricate pieces were handcrafted in France by the renowned brand Lalique, a name synonymous with exquisite art glass.
Each snail is beautifully detailed, showcasing the brand's signature contrast between frosted and clear finishes that highlight the contours of the design. The figurines are marked "Lalique France" on the base, a signature used on pieces made after 1945.
A unique and highly sought-after characteristic of these pieces is their reaction under UV light. The green snail glows a vivid green, indicating the presence of uranium in the glass, while the clear snail fluoresces blue-white. This phenomenon is a key indicator for identifying authentic Lalique pieces made after 1945.
Condition:
Both figurines are in excellent condition with no noted chips, cracks, or repairs. The green snail has its original box, as shown in the images. Please review all images carefully for a full understanding of the item's condition.
Dimensions:
Approximately 1.5 inches in height and 2 inches in length.
Highlights:
  • Rare pair of Lalique "Helix" snail figurines (one clear, one green)
  • Signed "Lalique France" on base
  • Green glass glows neon green under UV light (uranium glass)
  • Clear glass fluoresces blue-white under UV light
  • Handcrafted in France, with intricate frosted and clear details
  • Ideal for collectors of Lalique, art glass, or uranium glass.


Dimensions : 2 in L x 2 in W x 2 in H
