The jeweler René Lalique from Paris revolutionized goldsmithery around 1900 by increasingly using organic materials and gemstones instead of precious stones and gold for his creations. In addition to jewelry he also offered decorative items such as this bowl Cockerel Heads. The round bowl is extended in three places, thus creating slightly pointed edges. The center of the bowl consists of three cockerel heads made of silver which are centrally aligned and appear to be picking food. Their arched, strongly elongated necks with flame-like feathers merge into the narrow rim of the bowl. The food grains are indicated by opal cabochons, the space between is filled with light-blue opaline glass.
