Symbol of prosperity and perseverance, the Koi fish has often inspired artists. Designed in 1953 by Marc Lalique, the Double Fish sculpture depicts two carps gushing from water in a movement evoking infinity. This model is now available in a small size. The satin-finished crystal, emblematic of Lalique, highlights the finely carved scales. Trained as a jeweler at the Ecole des Arts Decoratifs in Paris in the late 1880's, Rene Lalique gained recognition as an independent designer for some of the era's great jewelry houses including Cartier and Boucheron. Eventually, he turned to glassmaking, and his techniques were a triumph for the Art Deco movement. Every piece of Lalique is finely detailed and produced by hand in Alsace, France.
