Made of clear and tinted sepia glass with brass metal inserts for the candlesticks. Very solid and the design echoes and reinforces the sturdy aspect of the design, with the clear glass giving the opposite, ephemeral effect. Alternating with backwards arching bands that support the candlesticks, are 4 quarters of a circular band, each moulded with a spectacular pheasant - birds that were clearly a favourate of Rene Lalique's. The modelling is in very high relief with fabulous detail combining realism with abstract design. Very pleasing to the eye. The birds are further enhanced with a pinkish - brown patina.

Engraved signature R. Laliqe France.

Very good condition, with no chips/cracks/damage/restoration.
