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.
