Inspired by the Armorique Crystal Vase designed by Rene Lalique in 1927, the Cynara Crystal Vase takes us to the lands of the Languedoc. Between sea and mountains, this sun-drenched region in the South of France offers many landscapes: wide open spaces, shrublands, ancient massifs and beautiful gorges, raw beauty whose authenticity has inspired many artists, including Rene Lalique. The word Cynara refers to a species of thistle-like plants native to the Mediterranean region. Fashioned in satin-finished and re-polished crystal, emblematic of Lalique Crystal, the leaves overlay in a graphic play on repetition.
