This new collection has the animal kingdom as its theme. The collection Animal Footprint Chapter 2 is dedicated to René Lalique's favorite theme, paying homage to our magnificent Faun.
In a second act, this collection of formidable and majestic species, Animal Footprint Chapter 2, expands and becomes the natural sanctuary for the kings of the savannah, jungle, and forest. Whether lurking in emerald green waters, hidden in tall grass, or impeccably mimicking a tree trunk, these specialists in camouflage and surprise attack have been captured in their purest form. Still and silent, the eternal wonders of nature, brought to life by Lalique crystal, have never been so intriguing.
Panther, spotted with ocelli
Elegant black and white panthers play hide-and-seek with light and shadow. Their silhouettes and soft, velvety texture are visible on a vase. The panther's subtly speckled wild fur adorns the blown crystal, crafted with a meticulous satin-polished finish, a technique mastered by Lalique's talented artisans.
Crocodile, graphic power
Crocodile skin reveals its graphic and sculptural power. Lalique depicts the reptile's scales with striking realism thanks to a technical feat of crystal craftsmanship, creating a fantastic texture that invites the touch. The powerful animal, in harmony with its environment, is camouflaged in Amazonian green.
Tiger, transformed
Thanks to the incredible magic of blown crystal, the lines intersect, and the Zebra vase brings a powerful tiger to life. The flowing fur of this jungle genius rushes toward the light. The coats of Lalique's tigers, embellished with amber, as well as a pair of limited editions enameled with black or ultra-gold lines, blend into the decor.
Serpent, infinite round
Curled into a corolla, as if dozing in the tropical branches of its native forest, this python is the king of camouflage. The reptile's massive, motionless body becomes a sculpted cup creating an endless circle. Its wood-like skin reveals a myriad of plant-like hues: light, black, amber, and a limited-edition Amazonian green.
Animal, adorn oneself with scales
Chapter 2 of the Animal Footprint collection continues its colorful journey with Lalique's new costume jewelry pieces for the Fall/Winter 2023 season. Wildlife becomes jewelry. Like a snake coiling around its branch, crystal weaves its way into Animal Footprint jewelry.
Lalique's precious material, textured like skin, sheds its striped robe and is adorned with scales, enhanced with a satin-brushed-polished finish. Crystallized in an eternal form, the serpent transforms from poisonous red to Amazonian green. The exquisite and wild jewels in the collection can be combined and transformed at will.
No matter the outfit or style, these jewels can be asymmetrical, stacked and layered, empowering the contemporary woman and asserting her style.
Necklaces, pendants, bracelets, rings and even earrings, through a play of carabiners, metal and crystal intermingle and alternate to form elegant sets with striking contrasts.
Green crystal links are paired with silver, while red crystal contrasts with 18k yellow gold-plated brass links… Strong enamel compositions for personalized jewelry.
Fur, to roar with beauty
A thick mane envelops an impressive crystal. The Fur Cup, formerly a polar bear created in Chapter 1 of the collection, transforms into a fierce king of the African plains. Vibrant and warm, rounded and brilliant in its amber coat, the Fur Cup becomes a Lion, roaring with beauty.
Lioness, wild instincts
Tense muscles, alert gaze, heightened senses. The lioness sculpture, ready to pounce, focuses on her wild instincts in precious gold and dazzling clear crystal. It's the story of two sisters. One with golden highlights, the other with a pure white coat, both named Timbavati, in homage to the South African reserve where rare white lions are found in the wild. A living treasure, unparalleled in the world.
Owl, wings spread
Lalique captures in crystal the crucial moment before the attack. With its talons outstretched, the barn owl slices through the air. In flight, this bird of prey is so silent that its prey is easily caught. The animal's strength shines through, a blend of amber, bronze, and colorless colors, with exceptional attention to detail on the outstretched wings, delicately infused with filigree.
Grand Duke, nocturnal bird
The majestic eagle owl, with its thick plumage and soft down, warms and gently embraces. Crafted from textured clear crystal, large or small, this nocturnal-inspired tea light holder diffuses a shimmering, soothing light.
Taiga, boreal forest captures
As if carved from a glacier, the Taïga Crystal Edition candle is a minimalist masterpiece, while inside lies a deep, fir-green wax, like the boreal forest encased in ice. The freshness of a snowy accord reminiscent of frosted branches, the invigorating shiso herb like the invigorating caress of life-giving winds, and the scent of Scots pine, anchored by strong ancient roots, depicted by vetiver and moss, both comfort and anchor the soul.
Heritage Capsule
To enhance the Animal Footprint collection, Lalique presents this season's "Heritage Capsule." Four pieces inherited from the Maison's creative history are adorned with Amazon green crystal. A powerful link between past and present.
Serpent
Since its inception, the Alsatian manufacturer Lalique has preserved its heritage of historic molds like so many treasures. Thus, a snake designed by René Lalique in 1924 can enter the scene and answer the call of a new collection, after almost a hundred years. The venomous creature with its piercing gaze coils around a vase and seduces with its Amazonian green.
Turtle
A symbol of longevity, the Lalique turtle has stood the test of time. This is how an ultra-graphic relief motif, imagined by the Lalique design studio in 2000, emerges from its shell and takes on a new, intense Amazonian green hue. An invitation to savor nature in a new light.
mossi
The kaleidoscopic effect of the Mossi vase is both a stroke of creative genius and a technical feat. Designed by René Lalique in 1933, this iconic piece is now transformed into a vibrantly intense Amazonian green crystal. Sculptural and hypnotic, the Mossi vase plays with optical illusions in a lush jungle atmosphere.
Bacchantes
In 1927, René Lalique's boundless imagination and creative genius led to the creation of the Bacchantes vase. This iconic model depicts the young priestesses of Bacchus, with their voluptuous beauty and curves. To complement the Animal Footprint collection, the Bacchantes vase is adorned with dazzling Amazon green crystal.
