About the Item
Whimsical Art Deco pelican trinket dish in Régule by Max Le Verrier – a rare decorative object full of wit, charm and French flair.
This compact, sculptural piece was cast in Régule (spelter), a favored material of the 1920s and ’30s that allowed for the finely detailed forms seen in French Art Deco design. The stylized pelican is rendered with angular wings, geometric feet and a bold upward gaze – its wide-open beak forming a sculptural dish for rings, keys or coins.
Finished in Le Verrier’s signature deep green patina, the piece displays minor signs of age and handling – tiny surface chips and wear to the rim – which only enhance its authentic vintage character.
Functional and collectable, it’s an ideal accent for an entryway table, vanity or nightstand – and a conversation-starting gift for lovers of rare French decorative arts.

Max Le Verrier
Max Le Verrier was born on January 29, 1891, in Neuilly-sur-Seine. He opened his studio in 1919 and won a medal at the famed 1925 Exposition in Paris that gave Art Deco its name. Later, he established a foundry that cast bronze sculptures for Pierre Le Faguays and Marcel Bourain, among others. Although Le Verrier experimented with other alloys, he continued to create pieces in bronze as well. Le Verrier died on June 6, 1973, in Paris.
