About the Article

Lalique drew inspiration from the Champs-Élysées bowl, designed by Marc Lalique in 1951, to create a lighting collection ranging from sconces to monumental chandeliers. The delicately-veined leaves of the bowl evoke the majestic plane-trees that line the "most beautiful avenue in the world". These pieces seem to capture the essence of Paris, crystallizing its soul.

As light passes through the crystal, it creates an enchanting play of reflections, making each piece unique and mystical.

About the know-how

For centuries, Lalique has preserved the gestures and know-how of its artisans, passing them down from generation to generation. From the creation of the pots where the crystal is melted to the molding of the material in the hot glass workshop, every step of the process is executed with precision and skill.

In the seclusion of Lalique's workshops, the highly trained men and women create between 350,000 and 400,000 pieces every year. Their expertise and craftsmanship are the heart and soul of the brand.

Lalique's unique know-how has been recognized with the prestigious label of Entreprise du Patrimoine Vivant (Living Heritage Enterprise, or EPV), a distinction awarded by the French State to recognize companies for the excellence of their traditional and industrial skills. This label acknowledges Lalique's commitment to preserving and perpetuating the art of French crystal-making for generations to come.
