Description :

A fine mid-century French molded lead crystal centerpiece bowl in the iconic "Champs-Élysées" pattern, originally designed by Marc Lalique in 1951.

The dramatic, organic form is meticulously modeled as two overlapping, deeply veined plane tree leaves capturing the movement of wind along Paris's famous boulevard. The centerpiece showcases Lalique's signature master craftsmanship, seamlessly blending brilliant, high-polish clear crystal details with velvety, acid-etched satin-frosted finishes to create a striking play of light.

  • Manufacturer: Lalique France
  • Material: Frosted and clear lead crystal
  • Marks: Signed with the traditional diamond-point engraved script signature "Lalique ® France" on the underside of the base.
  • Overall Condition: Excellent vintage/pre-owned condition, presenting with brilliant clarity and a clean visual profile.
  • Surface Visuals: The frosted and polished surfaces are crisp with no clouding, water staining, or chemical discoloration.
  • Structural Integrity: Free of structural cracks, deep fractures, major chips, or repairs.
  • Base Wear: Microscopic, age-appropriate shelf friction wear/light scratches strictly confined to the underside of the resting base feet, entirely consistent with careful handling and domestic display
  • dimensions18" across
