Lalique Jewelry
Lalique Jewelry was originally made for high class shops in Paris.
Rene Lalique was famous for his art nouveau jewelry with sinuous flowing lines and nature motifs.
Lalique Jewelry often involves fantasy insect and reptiles which he designed as a homage to the creatures he was so fond of watching on the Brittany coastline in his youth.
Examine a lalique piece of jewelry carefully and you will discover that M.Lalique has altered nature .
A Bumble bee for example may well have an extra pair of eyes or a dragonfly (his favourite subject) an extra pair of wings.
Much of the jewelry from Lalique was destined for the boudoirs of wives and mistresses and actresses were particularly fond of his ornate fantasy designs at the fin de siecle.
