Hommage à René Lalique Beauvais Vase

$3950.00

In 2010, to celebrate the 150th anniversary of René Lalique's birth in 1860, LALIQUE created the Hommage à René Lalique collection. In this collection, Lalique re-examines and reinterprets iconic glass creations of Rene Lalique. The Beauvais vase, created in 1931, is reissued in clear crystal. The manufacturing process truly requires the technical expertise of more than 10 glass masters. It is particularly difficult to shape the openwork crystal volutes and decorate both sides of the parison. To obtain the contrast of satin-finished and shiny crystal, characteristic of Lalique, the glass masters, as sculptors of light, detailed by hand each detail of the vase. The beauty of the artist-craftsman's motions serves his search for excellence.
