“Both Lalique and Fromental share a common
passion for creative excellence, with nature a
fertile source of inspiration. At our first meeting
Tim told me he had always admired René
Lalique’s drawings and his creation of crystal
objets d’art.
With further conversation I knew we had to do
something incorporating the Hirondelles wall
sculptures and the Dahlia, which is reminiscent
of my childhood and my mother’s Dahlia Box on
her dressing table.
We are proud to propagate our know-
how learned over some 130 years through
collaborations with contemporary artists such as
Fromental.” Frederick Fischer, managing director,
Lalique (UK).
The wallcovering is a custom piece designed for
the individual interior with each Lalique piece
being expertly placed to reflect the light on the
crystal. The Dahlia and Swallow wall sculptures
come in three different sizes each one comes
with a magnet (or a screw on the Dahlia’s)
enabling the piece to be positioned in graphic
play the wall.
The Hirondelles design is created to custom
order where each Lalique piece will be
positioned by the designers for maximum effect.
