About the Item

René Lalique (1860-1945), "peacock" lamp in patinated and engraved molded-pressed glass, bronze mount, Model created in 1910 by RENÉ LALIQUE. H. 42.5 cm. Bibliographies: Marcilhac No. 2159 In 1910, René Lalique created the "Peacock" lamp in patinated molded-pressed glass. It features the bird in various forms, whether on the lampshade, fanning out its tail or perched on the lamp base. RELATED ARTICLES: Created in 1910 in his glassworks in Combs-la-Ville, east of Paris, where he had moved the previous year, this model appeared in the artist's catalog in 1928, before being removed four years later. It was not reused after 1947, when Marc Lalique took over the family business. The "peacock" lamp is, in any case, the first designed and produced by René Lalique. Very few examples were produced, some of which are housed in museums, foremost among them the one in Wingen-sur-Moder, Alsace, dedicated to the designer. The bird displays its tail on the upper part of the object, while it is depicted plugged into the central part, the countless eyes of its tail extending to the base. René Lalique would return to this motif for his jewelry, but also in 1913 on the stopper of the Pâquerettes bottle, designed for the perfumer Roger & Gallet, and finally on a night light. The artist's entire oeuvre, his jewelry as well as his glass creations, bear witness to his passion for nature and his talent for capturing its beauty. This taste likely stems from his childhood spent in Aÿ, in the Champagne region. Having moved to Paris shortly after his birth, René Lalique could hardly do without the plant and animal world. His jewelry, like his glass objects, became paintings or landscapes. "He asked nature for its secrets. Nature answered him," wrote Gustave Geffroy in 1922, in his book dedicated to our glass magician.
