In creating his great fountain, <em>Les Sources De France<\/em>, Rene Lalique was following in the footsteps of the tradition in Paris of the great French fountain builders dating back to the middle ages when fountains were first constructed to provide drinking water to the people of Paris!<\/p>\n<p>Lalique knew he had conceived a great design, not just for the fountain in its entirety, but also in the style and motif of the large glass statues which were the fountain elements. As a result, he also made a miniature statuette model in the style of the fountain statues set in his classic round cendrier with centerpiece. In this case, the centerpiece is the Statuette De La Fontaine. <\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" src=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/statuette-de-la-fontaine-lalique-ashtray-1-13-10.jpg\"  alt=\"Lalique Ashtray Statuette De La Fontaine\" title=\"Lalique Ashtray Statuette De La Fontaine\"\/>Today, this style cendrier in all its forms is commonly called a ring dish by sellers either because they don&#8217;t know, or because &#8220;ashtray&#8221; is not usually the best selling point.<\/p>\n<p>A nice looking example of the Rene Lalique Cendrier <em>Statuette De La Fontaine<\/em> has appeared at auction, in apparently great condition with a starting price of just $99 and no reserve.
