René Lalique Deux Moineaux Vase No.911 Grey Patina c1920 Signed R. Lalique
An original René Lalique Deux Moineaux (Two Sparrows) vase, model No. 911, first introduced in 1920. This charming Art Deco design features two peacefully resting sparrows nestled within a circular wreath of stylised foliage, one of René Lalique's most admired naturalistic creations. The vase beautifully captures Lalique's mastery of combining sculptural relief with elegant glassmaking, resulting in a timeless and highly collectible work.
Finished in a grey patina, the frosted relief highlights the delicate feather detail of the birds against the clear glass body, creating exceptional depth and contrast. The flattened circular form with a short cylindrical neck is both distinctive and instantly recognisable as one of Lalique's early decorative masterpieces.
The underside is acid-etched "R. Lalique France", confirming its authenticity as a period René Lalique production. This model remains highly sought after by collectors due to its early production date, attractive bird motif, and classic Art Deco styling.
