Since its founding in 1888 by René Lalique, the storied house has become a symbol of timeless French luxury—and France's premier destination for handcrafted crystal. All in roundness, the Baby Elephant invites tenderness. The rich texture of its satin-finish repolished crystal perfectly replicates the pachyderm's ritual: its mud baths to cool down and protect itself. In the sun, the mud dries and delicately cracks along its wrinkled skin. With this sculpture shaped as a piece of art, Lalique celebrates the most imposing terrestrial animal, a symbol of strength, intelligence, and pure wisdom.
