The auction was managed by Ken Leach, with Nick Dawes as the auctioneer. It was held in conjunction with the Annual Convention of the IPBA &#8211; The International Perfume Bottle Association. The auction contained several hundred perfume lots, including a decent selection of Lalique Perfume Bottles, of which the Tresor De La Mer was the most notable. The Tresor De La Mer was far from perfect, being described as follows (and see photos):<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" src=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/05\/tresor-de-la-mer-r-lalique-perfume-3-5-1-09.jpg\" alt=\"Rene Lalique Perfume Bottle and Powder Box Presentation for Saks Tresor De La Mer\" title=\"Rene Lalique Perfume Bottle and Powder Box Presentation for Saks Tresor De La Mer\" \/>Lot 222: <em>R.

This was at the time, and remains today the highest price ever recorded for a Rene Lalique Perfume at auction anywhere in the world. And of course, nothing brings out another example or two faster than a great auction price!<\/p>\n<p>Another R Lalique Tresor De La Mer also appeared on Ebay after that, which was discussed in this <a href=\"\/blog\/?p=134\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Rene Lalique Perfume<\/span><\/a> blog and news post.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" src=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/05\/tresor-de-la-mer-r-lalique-perfume-2-5-1-09.jpg\" alt=\"Rene Lalique Perfume Bottle and Powder Box Presentation for Saks Tresor De La Mer\" title=\"Rene Lalique Perfume Bottle and Powder Box Presentation for Saks Tresor De La Mer\" \/>One final note on this great Rene Lalique Sales result: The literature has indicated that 50 of these R Lalique Oyster Perfume Presentations for Saks were produced. However the original tag on the Rene Lalique Tresor De La Mer that appeared at Rago in 2006 indicated it was one of 100 examples.<\/p>\n<p>The 20th Annual IPBA Perfume Bottles Auction is scheduled to be held in Reston, Virginia, in May of 2010 in conjunction with its next IPBA Annual Convention.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rene Lalique 1939 Tresor de la Mer Oyster Box and Pearl Bottle created for Saks Fifth Avenue by Lalique, sold on May 1st at the Perfume Bottles Auction in New Mexico for a premium inclusive $24,000.
