The optic-sided clear crystal bowl is elevated by a striking four-bird pedestal, with softly frosted satin birds supporting the bowl below. The interplay between the clear crystal and matte figures is a hallmark of Lalique’s refined mid-century design.

Elegantly proportioned and sculptural, the Nogent compote works equally well as a centerpiece, serving bowl, or display object.

About Lalique & the Nogent Pattern
Founded by René Lalique, the Lalique firm is internationally renowned for its mastery of French crystal, blending sculptural artistry with functional elegance. Lalique designs often draw inspiration from nature, particularly birds, which appear throughout the company’s decorative arts from the early 20th century onward.

The Nogent pattern, introduced in the mid-20th century, is prized for its architectural clarity and lyrical bird motif. Pieces from this line are especially collectible for their balanced proportions, satin-frosted figures, and refined modern aesthetic, making them enduring favorites among Lalique collectors.
