Résumé :	René Lalique (1860-1945) was a man of exceptional talent and versatility whose work covers both the art nouveau and art déco periods. In the years around the turn of the century, he made some of the most breathtakingly beautiful jewellery ever seen. Later, he was to turn his attention entirely to glass and, adding business acumen to his artistic and technical skills, rose to become one of the leading industrialists in France, creating glassware of the highest standard. He also designed interiors and exhibitions, again using glass in totally new and original ways. Superbly illustrated in colour and black and white, this book covers all aspects of Lalique's astonishing career. Here is devastating, decadent jewellery from the belle époque; the car mascots, lighting fixtures and tableware from the years between the wars, the cire perdue pieces, the architectural and exhibition work and, of course, the incomparable vases and scent bottles.
