These two examples are in a lovely clear crystal with excellent detail still existing in the moulds and are typical of the 1970's. The 'Cats' have remained a firm favourite with collectors over the years and the more recent examples from the Lalique factory are produced in a frosted, almost white surfaced glass, with much less detail in the moulds. These are such beautiful creatures that they are one of the few modern production items that i am always happy to have in stock. &nbsp;Design created in 1932. These models produced C 1970's. &nbsp; Ref: Marcilhac: Left 'CHAT ASSIS' 1208: Right 'CHAT COUCHE' 1207 &nbsp;</span></span></span></span></p> <p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: #ffffff; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial; display: inline !important; float: none;"><span style="color: #333333;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: Arial;"><strong>Height of Cat on Left: </strong>8.25 (21cm)<strong>&nbsp;</strong> <strong>Length of cat on right</strong>: 9.5" (24cm) </span></span></span></span></p> <p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: #ffffff; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial; display: inline !important; float: none;"><span style="color: #333333;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">&nbsp;<strong>Signatures</strong>.
