| Aluminum was an ideal material for theater props because of its light weight. This tiara, designed by René Lalique, was made for Comedie-Francaise actress Julie Bartet for her role in Racine’s tragedy Berenice. It consists of an aluminum frame, made from a series of lotus flowers and openwork palmettes, inset with five ivory plaques carved with scenes from the life of Berenice. | |||||||||||
