Crystal is a noble material that lends itself to many art forms – it is a material I find extraordinary for its purity and wonderful response to light.” Pierre- Yves Rochon. Pierre-Yves Rochon has now added the Perles chandelier to the “Signature” collection. Inspired by original Art Deco lighting designs created by René Lalique in the 1930s and by the graphic and symbolic power of the candle. The Perles chandelier with neoclassical accents is highlighted by LED technology.
