Lalique 'Bacchantes' frosted and clear crystal vase, No. 997, designed 1927, post 1945

Notes

Lalique's 'Bacchantes' vase is one of the few vases that was still made by Crystal Lalique, this piece showing a post-war signature.

This vase shows a brilliant use of high relief to convey movement and sensuality.
