René Lalique Leather, enamel, glass and citrine collar, 'Chantecler'
In openwork leather embroided with silk, depicting roosters applied with enamel and accented by glass berry motifs, the clasp collet-set with a cabochon citrine, signed Lalique, 18 carat gold, gross weight 277.45 grams; 1909, case stamped Lalique.
René Lalique Tiara at Auction
A tiara by René Lalique will be auctioned at Sotheby’s on December 17th along with 38 other pieces by Lalique from the collection of Claude H. Sorbac. The pansy tiara was made circa 1904/1905 from glass, enamel, diamonds, and gold and the estimate is 150,000 - 300,000 EUR/ 168,815 USD - 337,629 USD.
From Sotheby’s “The bandeau decorated with moulded glass pansy flowers motifs, green enamel foliage and set with circular-, single-cut and rose diamonds, length approximately 315mm, signed Lalique, French assay marks for 18 carat gold and maker’s mark for René Lalique, gross weight 84.65 grams; circa 1904-1905, fitted case stamped Lalique.”
Another pansy tiara by Lalique was auctioned at Sotheby’s in 2014 for 225,000 CHF/ 242,740 USD. It was also made circa 1905 from glass, enamel, diamonds, and gold.
René Lalique was a famous Art Nouveau jeweler and as such his pieces are valuable because of the design and techniques used and not because of precious materials like we normally see in jewelry. I particularly like the way the enamel leaves are worked around the diamonds of varying sizes in this one.

Designed as an articulated floral branch, set with cushion-shaped, circular- and rose-cut diamonds, the flower heads set en tremblant, mounted in silver, yellow and pink gold, signed Vever, French assay and maker’s mark, can be detached into three smaller brooches, accompanied by two detachable diamond set caps.

This piece, intended to be worn descending from one shoulder, begins with a broken off bit of “branch” and ends with a tiny pair of leaves. Despite the bling, it conveys a delicate naturalism, with each cherry blossom seemingly thin as paper and trembling with every movement (an effect created by invisible springs). New research undertaken by Wartski’s Katherine Purcell, the exhibition curator and author of its excellent catalogue, reveals that the brooch, long thought to be by Vever, is in fact by Renée Lalique, adding to its rarity. Lalique made few diamond-encrusted pieces and none other on this scale.
