The eight volumes in this box-set reveal the manifold creative talents of Rene Lalique, an exception artist, Art Nouveau jeweller, and later Art Deco glassmaker, as well as those of his successors and the many people who perpetuate these skills in the present day. Illustrating previously unpublished works, Lalique retraces the history of the brand and its founding family. For Lalique is above all a famous name - the name of Rene "the inventor of the modern jewel" as Ernst Galle described him at the close of the 19th century. After working from home as a designer for large firms, Lalique opened his own workshop, where he created objects in the round using previously neglected materials, such as horn, semi-precious stones, enamels and glass
