Beautiful gigantic nude female statuette with her floor length hair cascading around her body, set on a decorated glass base, with a frieze of intaglio moulded ivy, in turn supported on its original 1919 ebonised hardwood base with Chinese motif pierced decoration. It is extremely rare today to find an example of this fantastic creation, and even more amazing to find one with its totally original wooden mounting base still intact and in superb condition. The marking on the glass is R.Lalique engraved in script with the original production number '836' also engraved on the base.
