In 2008 , Lalique was acquired by Swiss entrepreneur , Silvio Denz who has ensured continuity in its development , respecting traditional know-how centered on crystal , jewellery , fragrances , home accessories including furniture , lamps and decorative panels and most recently hotels and restaurants – a wide ranging orchestration of the brand ’ s timeless creations .
Today , Lalique represents timeless luxury and the French ‘ art of living ’. The Lalique universe covers perfume , jewellery , art , hospitality ( with its three hotels and restaurants – Chateau Lafaurie-Peyraguey ; Villa Rene Lalique and Chateau Hochberg ), decorative items and interior design .
It keeps its heritage alive by creating new collections and reinventing classic models in new colours and finishes . Working with other prestigious luxury brands , artists such as Damien Hirst and designers such as the late Zaha Hadid who share the same values and standards of quality using age old techniques and designs in new ways .
NEW FOR 2020 – BOTANICA
Nature has always been an inexhaustible source of inspiration for Lalique .
Founding father , Rene Lalique loved nature above all else and observed it with the upmost care and attention to detail . His creativity and inspiration was also underpinned by the three ‘ F ’ s ’: – Femme , Flora and Fauna – all of which are omnipresent in his designs .
The Botanica collection – new for 2020 takes us to a universe where floral romanticism contrasts with mineral strength . Thanks to the talents of its glass artists – many of whom are among the finest craftsmen in France - in the Alsace Factory , Lalique captures the ornamental and symbolic power of peony , lily of the valley , orchid and cherry blossom . Through clear , amber , purple or green crystal sometimes highlighted with enamel or gold , Lalique immortalizes nature and invites us to admire its beauty .
