ABOUT PRODUCTID 17021
The Chantilly bowl, designed by René Lalique in 1942 in France, exemplifies one of the most distinctive Art Deco themes in the master glassmaker’s oeuvre. The octagonal form, crafted from clear glass, features a wide, beveled rim adorned with a relief-molded ribbon motif subtly resembling fern fronds or feathered leaves. The central section remains smooth and glossy, providing contrast to the matte, satin-like finish along the edge. The bowl’s proportions are precise and geometric transitions sharp, underscoring the harmonic clarity typical of the era. The base bears the authentic signature "Lalique France." The piece is preserved in very good vintage condition—no chips or cracks, only minor surface scratches primarily on the underside, which are natural signs of careful use. No restoration is visible, and the bowl remains an original, collectible object. Within the glass of this bowl is encoded the quiet voice of the 1940s—a time when French craftsmanship sought equilibrium between tradition and modernity amid the uncertainty of war. The bowl evokes a quest for beauty rendered in clear form yet rich with symbolic nuance: the decorative ribbon traversing the rim serves as a discreet gesture, gently recalling the presence of luxury even during challenging times.
