Lalique - Jungle bowl clear crystal 

The Jungle is symbolized by the Jaguar, emblem of strength and power. According to legend, each day as the sun sets in the West it was swallowed by the night and would have to fight against fierce Jaguars to continue on its path towards the East to rise again next morning. This bowl in clear satin-finished crystal depicts the density of a tropical rainforest where Jaguars prowl majestically. The luxuriant plant-life and its animals are finely sculpted in crystal.

Lalique

Before becoming a brand, it was the name of a man, a genius artist, René-Jules Lalique and his heirs who shared his creative flame. René Lalique was born in Aÿ-en-Champagne in the Marne region of France. A few years later, the Lalique family moved to Paris, but continued to spend the holidays in Aÿ. René Lalique remained deeply attached to his birthplace throughout his life. In 1887 he opened a business in Rue du Quatre-Septembre. Already in 1888 he designed his first finely wrought gold Parures inspired by antiquity and japonism, breaking the tradition of jewelry with the inclusion of innovative materials in his pieces. In 1888,  he recorded his "RL" stamp and engraved the unique pieces created in his workshop with these letters.
