Status: Sold

Lalique France clear and frosted crystal "Naïade" ring or card holder, the design taken from René Lalique’s celebrated water-nymph motif of the 1920s–30s. An upright arched plaque of frosted crystal is molded with a nude naïade (water nymph) in profile, her long hair streaming out behind her in sweeping, bubbled waves that evoke water in motion — a sensuous, quintessentially Art Deco image — the plaque rising from a shallow round clear dish. A versatile little piece for rings, a place card, or a small photograph. Script-etched "Lalique ® France" signature and "Lalique Paris" mark. Measures 5 × 4 × 5″.
