One-of-a-kind piece
  • EXCLUSIVE WORK
Bacchus, god of wine and revelry, appears among bacchantes and grape-laden vines in this heavy sculptural crystal bowl. The figures emerge in high-relief frosted satin (satiné), creating a striking dynamic contrast against the clear crystal body and the crisp, geometric hand-polished cuts at the rim and foot. The design, dimensions, and physical weight correspond closely to René Lalique's Bacchus bowl design. However, because this specific piece is unsigned, an definitive attribution cannot be confirmed. It is presented on its own strong aesthetic merit, substantial period weight, and fine visual craftsmanship. Dimensions & Weight Diameter: 25 cm (9.8 in) Height: 16 cm (6.3 in) Weight: 4.92 kg (10.85 lbs) Period & Material Circa: 1920–1940 (Art Deco) Medium: Heavy Molded Lead Crystal Signature: Unsigned Condition Report In very good vintage display condition throughout. The frosted satin finish remains crisp and sharp, with excellent crystal transparency. Features one minor internal shell flake on the inner rim; because the outer profile and top rim surface remain entirely smooth and intact, this internal flaw is completely invisible when the piece is displayed on a table or shelf. Please refer to video for detailed visual inspection.
