Lalique perfume bottle for "L'air du
Temps" perfume from Nina Ricci.

The L'air du Temps design features a stopper of two frosted kissing doves on a twisted ridged bottle body.

The original design for the "L'Air du Temps" perfume bottle was by the sculptor Jean Rebull, and was in the shape of a sun.
But it was Marc Lalique who produced the iconic two doves atop a swirling ribbed body version, as presented here, for Nina Ricci. It was first produced in 1951 … Incidentally, Marc Lalique was friends with Nina Ricci's son Robert.

The base of the bottle is block etched "Nina Ricci", and also script engraved "Lalique".

The perfume bottle stands 11cm (4.25") tall including the stopper. The stopper measures 10.5 cm (4") across the wingspan.
All measurements are approximate

The perfume bottle is in good condition. There is a minute chip to the underside of the tip on one wing of the two doves.
