Q :        I have a Lalique “Champs Elysees” bowl shaped like two oak leaves. The leaves are frosted and the base and connecting part are clear. The bowl is 7 1/2 inches high and 18 inches wide, and weighs 21 pounds. How much is it worth?

A  :      Rene Lalique (1860-1945) began making Art Nouveau glass in Paris in the 1890s. Lalique glass is still being made. Pieces made by Rene were marked with the signature, “R. Lalique.” Those made from 1945 until 1977 are marked “Lalique France.” Newer pieces include the letter “R” in a circle. Your bowl is worth about $1,000 to $2,000. The pattern is still being made.
