{"product_id":"original-rene-lalique-signed-art-deco-glass-jewelry-tray-france-1933","title":"Original René Lalique Signed Art Deco Glass Jewelry Tray | France - 1933","description":"More than a decorative object, this is a tangible artifact of French design history—designed by the legendary René Lalique himself and produced in France under his direct guidance during the height of the Art Deco era.  Unlike contemporary reproductions produced by the modern Lalique brand today, this rare piece carries the coveted R. LALIQUE signature. The prefix \"R.\" was permanently dropped from production after René Lalique’s death in 1945. Possessing this mark certifies that the piece was crafted during the master’s lifetime, embodying the original technical mastery and artistic vision of France’s most celebrated glassmaker.\nThe 1933 'Tokyo' Design Conceived on 22 November 1933, the \"Tokyo\" pattern (Beurrier individuel, Model No. 3902) represents a high-water mark of 1930s French art de vivre. Crafted in clear molded-pressed glass (verre blanc moulé-pressé), its architectural form features canted corners surrounded by Lalique’s signature \"String of Pearls\" beadwork—a motif inspired by fine jewelry design.\nHistorical Significance Found in Lalique’s famous 1937 tariff and permanently retired after 1947, this dish captures the luminous, light-diffusing technique that revolutionized 20th-century decorative art. Originally conceived as an individual butter dish for grand Parisian dining tables, its scale serves today as an extraordinary ring dish, vanity accent, or museum-worthy collector’s piece.\nProvenance \u0026amp; Specifications\n\n\nMaster Designer: René Lalique (1860–1945)\nModel Name \u0026amp; Number: Tokyo, No. 3902\nCreation Date: November 22, 1933\nProduction Period: Circa 1933–1939 (Pre-WWII)\nHistorical Mark: Original molded\/etched R.
