AI overview - The Script Signatures: The two script inscriptions are "Lalique ® France" and "M. Lalique" (the signature of Marie-Claude Lalique).

During her era, she frequently hand-etched her own script signature onto special or premium crystal editions alongside the corporate mark.The Registered Trademark (®): The small character that looks like an "@" or an "O" next to the word Lalique is actually a small registered trademark symbol (®).
