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. Among flowers, the anemone, a symbol of purity and innocence, particularly inspired René Lalique, which he then made the centerpiece of many jewels and decorative objects. In 1912, he designed a vase displaying a motif of anemone in blue patinated glass, fashioned in "cire perdue". With the Anemone collection, Lalique gives a fresh insight into this creation transfigured to vases available in several sizes and colours, bowls, perfume bottles, and votives. Fashioned in satin-finished and re-polished crystal, emblematic of LALIQUE, the flowers are juxtaposed in a graphics play on repetition, capturing the ephemeral beauty of flowers.
