The birds on the painting are starlings, the flowers are stars of
arabia, it features an armored breastplate with a star insignia. and
the composition generally draws from alchemical paintings, art deco,
Tarot, etc. The bottle depicted is named Dans la Nuit, meaning 'In the
Night'. When Jacques Worth, grandson of the Worth fashion house's
founder, ventured into the family's perfume business in 1924,he didn't
want an ordinary flacon. He turned to the era's most renowned master
glassmaker, French designer René Lalique. The result became one of the
Art Deco period's most iconic objects. It features a hot-applied
cobalt blue patina over frosted glass. The stars on the surface vary
in size and are scattered irregularly, imitating a realistic night
sky. The raised stars were left with a clear crystal finish, allowing
them to stand out like points of light against the dark background.
