This large decorative bowl originates from the 1920 Art Deco period. Manufactured in France by Rene Lalique, the piece consists of mould-pressed glass finished in an opalescent white colour. The surface features relief berries, swirling branches, and textured leaf motifs radiating in a circular pattern from the centre, with smooth translucent sections interspersed between the raised detailing. The vessel measures 24 cm in diameter. In a modern interior, this bowl functions as a decorative display object suited for placement on a sideboard top or a dining table centrepiece. The translucent glass catches natural daylight, creating subtle iridescent highlights across the curved contours of the raised botanical decoration. It provides a striking focal point for a living room, hallway, or dining space when arranged as a standalone accent piece.

Opalescent glass produced during the Art Deco era is a type of decorative pressed or blown glass treated with chemical additives such as fluorine or bone ash. When cooled unevenly, the glass develops a translucent, milky appearance that changes colour depending on the direction and intensity of light.

These bowls were created using mould-pressing techniques where molten glass was forced into metal moulds under pressure to form intricate relief designs. After forming, the glass underwent specific reheating processes to develop opalescence before being hand-finished or acid-etched.

Authentic pieces generally feature moulded or wheel-cut signatures such as R. LALIQUE or R. LALIQUE FRANCE. Look for sharp relief details, substantial weight, fine finish quality, and characteristic fiery blue or amber refraction within the opalescent zones.

Place the bowl on a dark wood sideboard, marble console, or near natural light sources to emphasize its translucent properties. It functions as a standalone decorative focal point or as a table centerpiece.

Wash the glass gently by hand using lukewarm water and a mild detergent, avoiding sudden temperature changes that could cause thermal shock. Dry thoroughly with a soft microfibre cloth and avoid harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive pads.
