In celebration of 130 years of creative excellence, Lalique is offering two readers the chance to win a stunning owl decanter. Each is worth £1,200 and handmade in clear crystal in Alsace, having been designed by Marie Claude Lalique in 1995.
René Lalique was one of the great creative forces of French decorative art in the 19th and 20th centuries and a leading jewellery designer. His encounter with the perfumer François Coty in 1907 heralded his entry into the world of perfume bottles, which led to his devoting himself exclusively to working in glass.
After René died in 1945, his son, Marc, replaced glass with crystal and raised Lalique’s profile to rank among the greatest crystal ware producers of the world. His granddaughter, Marie-Claude, then took the helm in 1977. In 2008, Lalique was acquired by the Swiss group Art & Fragrance and ensured continuity by respecting the traditional know-how centred around crystal, a tradition passed down with passion by generations of its artists and outstanding French craftsmen.
