Fine example of the model no. 1158 Perche fish car mascot in opalescent glass
Naturalistic represention of the Perch in predatory mode, likely as seen by René Lalique in the countryside lakes and rivers around him in 1929, presented as a hood ornament.
Offered here is a fine example in opalescent glass with no chips, grinding or restoration, exhibiting good mold quality and a lovely colour changing between white, blue and amber opalescence. Some mold lines and polishing thereof are apparent as part of the production technique of the time along with some minor air bubbles.
Molded ‘R. LALIQUE’ and faintly 'FRANCE' between the bottom fins and wheel-cut 'R. LALIQUE FRANCE' above.
Length 16cm
