Chêne Wall Sconce, Clear Crystal, Chrome Finish

Nature stays an inexhaustible source of inspiration for LALIQUE. For the "Art of Glass" exhibition held in 1951 at the Pavilion Marsan in the “Musée des Arts Décoratifs” in Paris, Marc Lalique created the “Chêne" table featuring the crystal oak leaf motif, created in contrasting satin-finished and clear crystal. This wall sconce is part of the “Chêne” range which includes a chandelier and a light ramp. Embodying the core values of the brand: luxury, excellence and creativity, the “Chêne” range is a subtle elixir between know-how and daring, the result of precise artisanal craftsmanship. 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.
