Designed to highlight the flavours of the finest spirits, the Versailles decanter enriches the Lalique collection of decanters to satisfy the desires of connoisseurs and discerning collectors. Lalique now also offers a wine refresher in polished Carrara marble. It ensures the freshness of the wine is maintained for 30 minutes, which is particularly suitable for a white or rosé wine. 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.
