Status: Sold

A Lalique France frosted and clear crystal figure of a dove ("Colombe"), modeled with wings sweeping fully upward and outward as if alighting, the satin-frosted body and finely combed feathers rising from a polished clear crystal plinth. The design documented as Lalique's "Colombe Clita"/"Colombe Cita" dove captures the bird in a graceful, dynamic pose, the frost-to-clear contrast lending the wings a soft luminosity against the bright base. An elegant, peaceable subject and one of the more striking of Lalique's bird sculptures. Script-etched "Lalique ® France" to the base.
