Lalique captures in its crystal nets one of Nature's purest beauties. A swarm of butterflies animates the material, lifted by the wind. Like a hymn to the harmony of Nature, Lalique expresses here a desire to capture the beauty of movement through the depth of a richly detailed motif, magnified by the satin-finished repolished crystal. The swarm of butterflies appears animated, suspended in a moment of grace, as if ready to fly away, carried by the air. The thin, delicate wings of the butterflies diffuse the light in a subtle play of transparency. The level of detail and precision of the motif contributes to Lalique’s unique style.
