Authentic Antique René Lalique Perfume Bottle – Model “D’ORSAY”, c.1911–1925

Offered for sale is an authentic antique perfume bottle designed by René Lalique, model “D’ORSAY”, originally created in 1911. This example dates to the early Lalique period (circa 1911–1925), as confirmed by the molded “LALIQUE” signature without “France”, a mark used prior to 1925.

The bottle is crafted in blown-molded frosted glass (verre blanc) and features elegant vertical relief panels with stylized female figures, a hallmark of Lalique’s Art Nouveau design. The original molded glass stopper with floral decoration is present.

🔹 Applied Decorative Seal (Important Detail)

The exterior of the bottle bears an old applied wax/resin seal with decorative stamped abstract motifs, visually resembling Asian or pseudo-calligraphic symbols.

This seal:

Is not molded into the glass

Is not a Lalique factory mark

Is not an export or customs mark

Such applied seals were sometimes added by perfume houses, boutiques, or retailers in the early 20th century as a decorative or authenticity-related element at the time of original sale.

The material, aging, and application are consistent with a period-applied seal, not a modern addition.

The presence of this seal indicates the bottle has not been altered or cleaned, and it remains part of the historical life of the object.
