| René Lalique
became synonomous with French Art Nouveau decorative arts. René Lalique
was born in 1860 and first began designing fine jewelry in Paris in 1881.
Lalique pursued increasingly more innovative experimentation in glass commencing
around 1883. Early works used the familiar "lost wax" technique by which
the model is made in wax while a mold is formed around the model. Then,
the wax is melted and molten glass is poured into the mold. Lalique glass
was made in this manner until approximately 1905 at which time the factory
was redesigned for a larger production. As such, the individual uniqueness
of each example of Lalique glass came to an end with the end of the one-time
only molding technique around wax models. The success of this venture resulted
in the opening of his own glassworks at Combs-la-Ville in 1909. During
the Art Nouveau period, Lalique was well known for a wide variety of objects
including perfume bottles, vases, inkwells, decorative boxes, and bookends.
In 1921 a larger factory was established at Wingen-sur-Moder in Alsace-Lorraine.
By the '30s Lalique was world renowned as the most important designer of
his time.
The Lalique, Galle, and Loetz glass in
the rotating exhibitions of the museum are fine examples of the high point
of Art Nouveau artistry in glass. You can continue learning about finer
