Lalique Clear and Gold-stamped Crystal Ox Sculpture, Zodiac Series

1940 - 1960
For Sale by Ritas Bazaar
Description

A solid clear crystal ox sculpture by Lalique of France, from the house's Chinese zodiac series marking the Year of the Ox, finished with the maker's gold-stamped treatment. The animal is modelled standing foursquare, head lowered, in the same confident, economical line as the clear crystal version of this subject, but here areas of the surface carry a fine gold stamping that catches the light against the clarity of the crystal beneath, adding warmth and contrast to the sculptural form.

The ox represents determination, perseverance and trustworthiness in Chinese astrology, and the steady, grounded pose captures that symbolism, while the gold stamping lifts the piece with a subtle, luxurious accent rather than altering its sculptural clarity.

The underside is engraved "Lalique France".

Dimensions: Height 10.1 cm (3.98 in); Length 14.3 cm (5.63 in); Width 5.3 cm (2.09 in). Weight 900 g (1.98 lb).

Condition: Excellent, no chips or cracks, crystal bright and clear with gold stamping intact.

Please study the accompanying photographs carefully as they form an integral part of this description. If you have any questions, we will be happy to answer them. The item will be shipped with full tracking and insurance. Shipping costs include handling, packaging and postage.

Date of Manufacture

Ritas Bazaar has dated this Lalique Crystal Ox Figurine to the 1960s.

FAQs

French glassmakers in the twentieth century pioneered techniques combining satin-finished frosted glass with polished highlights, often creating themed decorative series such as the Chinese Zodiac to celebrate symbolism and craftsmanship.

These decorative pieces are crafted from high-lead crystal using precision moulds, hand-finished to achieve a satin matte surface texture, and detailed with applied gold enamelling or gilding on raised elements.

Authentic pieces feature crisp moulded details, substantial weight due to high lead content, uniform satin finishing, and genuine maker signatures or marks etched into the base.

Position the sculpture on an illuminated shelf, dark wood sideboard, or executive desk where direct lighting highlights the contrast between the frosted crystal body and gilded accents.

Dust gently with a dry microfibre cloth and clean periodically using lukewarm water with mild soap, avoiding abrasive materials or chemical solvents that could damage gold accents.
