While the Sumatra Ashtray was an original Rene Lalique design from the mid 1920's, this particular example was made sometime after Rene's death in 1945, at a time when the company was referring to itself and its products as Cristal Lalique. Pieces signed this way are not seen as often as others. This design is no longer in production.
