An exceptional and highly collectible original 1920s René Lalique "Ronces" perfume bottle, one of the celebrated masterpieces of the French Art Deco period. Designed by the legendary French glassmaker and jewelry designer René Lalique, this exquisite bottle showcases the sculptural artistry and naturalistic motifs that made Lalique an international icon. The design features an elegant interpretation of intertwined brambles or briars ("ronces" in French), rendered with remarkable depth and precision in molded glass. The interplay of light across the relief decoration creates a jewel-like effect, transforming a functional perfume bottle into a work of decorative art. This example remains in excellent condition, retaining its original stopper and displaying crisp details throughout. The underside bears multiple authenticating marks, including both "R. Lalique" and "Lalique France" signatures, along with a production number. René Lalique stands among the most influential designers of the twentieth century, bridging the organic elegance of Art Nouveau and the bold geometry of Art Deco. Having achieved international fame as a jeweler to European aristocracy and cultural luminaries, Lalique revolutionized the world of decorative glass beginning in the early twentieth century. His collaborations with the leading French perfume houses transformed perfume presentation from simple packaging into an art form. By the 1920s, Lalique's perfume bottles had become symbols of luxury, innovation, and modern design, sought after by collectors and museums worldwide. Today, original signed R. Lalique perfume bottles are recognized as cornerstones of French decorative arts and remain among the most desirable objects from the golden age of Art Deco glass. The "Ronces" pattern is particularly admired for its sophisticated fusion of nature and modernism. While rooted in Lalique's lifelong fascination with botanical forms, the design's stylized briars embody the streamlined aesthetic that defined the Art Deco movement. The motif captures both elegance and strength, transforming a humble thorny plant into a refined decorative statement. Highly sought after by collectors of Lalique glass, French Art Deco perfume bottles, luxury vanity accessories, and twentieth-century design, this authentic signed example represents an increasingly scarce opportunity to acquire one of René Lalique's enduring creations. Equally compelling displayed within a curated collection, on a dressing table, or among fine French decorative arts, this museum-worthy piece exemplifies the craftsmanship, innovation, and timeless beauty that continue to define the Lalique legacy more than a century later.

A beautiful French Art Nouveau glass footed vase by Daum Nancy, dating to circa 1900. The piece has a wonderfully rounded, almost bowl-like body raised on a short stem and circular foot, giving it an elegant and particularly well-balanced silhouette. The glass displays an extraordinary palette of shifting blue and green tones. Depending on the direction and intensity of the light, the surface can appear predominantly turquoise blue, aqua, soft green or even vivid emerald, while deeper cobalt-blue accents define the foot and the landscape decoration around the lower body. The interior is equally striking, revealing a mottled composition of luminous greens and blues that gives the glass remarkable visual depth. Around the base of the bowl is a stylized wooded landscape rendered in dark blue, characteristic of the atmospheric naturalistic decoration associated with Daum’s Art Nouveau production. The softly mottled surface evokes sky, water and vegetation without becoming overtly figurative, giving the piece an almost Impressionistic quality. The body bears the incised “Daum Nancy” signature with the Cross of Lorraine, an emblematic mark associated with the celebrated Nancy glassworks. Comparable Daum landscape...

The flickering giant-shadows, gathering near, Closed round me with a dim and silent fear. All dull, all dark; save when the leaping flame, Glancing, lit up a Picture's ancient frame. Above the hearth it hung. Perhaps the night, My foolish tremors, or the gleaming light, Lent power to that Portrait dark and quaint, — A Portrait such as Rembrandt loved to paint, — The likeness of a Nun. I seemed to trace A world of sorrow in the patient face, In the thin hands folded across her breast: — Its own and the room's shadow hid the rest. I gazed and dreamed, and the dull embers stirred, Till an old legend that I once had heard Came back to me; linked to the mystic gloom Of that dark Picture in the ghostly room. In the far south, where clustering vines are hung; Where first the old chivalric lays were sung; Where earliest smiled that gracious child of France, Angel and knight and fairy, called Romance, I stood one day. The warm blue June was spread Upon the earth; blue summer overhead, Without a cloud to fleck its radiant glare, Without a breath to stir its sultry air. All still, all silent, save the sobbing rush Of rippling waves, that lapsed in silver hush Upon the beach; where, glittering towards the strand The purple Mediterranean kissed the land. All still, all peaceful; when a convent chime Broke on the mid-day silence for a time, Then trembling into quiet, seemed to cease, In deeper silence and more utter peace. So as I turned to gaze, where gleaming white, Half hid by shadowy trees from passers' sight, The Convent lay, one who had dwelt for long In that fair home of ancient tale and song, Who knew the story of each cave and hill, And every haunting fancy lingering still Within the land, spake thus to me, and told The Convent's treasured Legend, quaint and old: — Long years ago, a dense and flowering wood, Still more concealed where the white convent stood, Borne on its perfumed wings the title came: " Our Lady of the Hawthorns " is its name. Then did that bell, which still rings out to-day, Bid all the country rise, or eat, or pray. Before that convent shrine, the haughty knight Passed the lone vigil of his perilous fight; For humbler cottage strife or village brawl, The Abbess listened, prayed, and settled all. Young hearts that came, weighed down by love or wrong, Left her kind presence comforted and strong. Each passing pilgrim, and each beggar's right Was food, and rest, and shelter for the night. But, more than this, the Nuns could well impart The deepest mysteries of the healing art; Their store of herbs and simples was renowned, And held in wondering faith for miles around. Thus strife, love, sorrow, good and evil fate, Found help and blessing at the convent gate. Of all the nuns, no heart was half so light, No eyelids veiling glances half as bright, No step that glided with such noiseless feet, No face that looked so tender or so sweet, No voice that rose in choir so pure, so clear, No heart to all the others half so dear, So surely touched by others' pain or woe, (Guessing the grief her young life could not know,) No soul in childlike faith so undefiled, As Sister Angela's, the " Convent Child. " For thus they loved to call her. She had known No home, no love, no kindred, save their own. An orphan, to their tender nursing given, Child, plaything, pupil, now the Bride of Heaven And she it was who trimmed the lamp's red light That swung before the altar, day and night; Her hands it was whose patient skill could trace The finest broidery, weave the costliest lace; But most of all, her first and dearest care, The office she would never miss or share, Was every day to weave fresh garlands sweet, To place before the shrine at Mary's feet. Nature is bounteous in that region fair, For even winter has her blossoms there. Thus Angela loved to count each feast the best, By telling with what flowers the shrine was dressed. In pomp supreme the countless Roses passed, Battalion on battalion thronging fast, Each with a different banner, flaming bright, Damask, or striped, or crimson, pink, or white, Until they bowed before a newborn queen, And the pure virgin Lily rose serene. Though Angela always thought the Mother blest Must love the time of her own hawthorn best, Each evening through the years, with equal care, She placed her flowers; then kneeling down in prayer, As their faint perfume rose before the shrine, So rose her thoughts, as pure and as divine. She knelt until the shades grew dim without, Till one by one the altar lights...
