René Lalique was a French jeweller and glass artist who established his own workshop in 1885. Around the turn of the century, his production mostly consisted of exquisite jewellery in sophisticated Art Nouveau style. From around 1920, René Lalique transitioned to creating art glass. Lalique's glass pieces are mould-blown with naturalistically decorations of plants, women, and animals in a well-balanced harmony. Besides art glass, Lalique also manufactured perfume bottles, lamps, and glassware. The factory remains active to this day.
