Lalique Champs-Élysées Small Bowl
Elegant, radiant, and inspired by one of the world’s most iconic boulevards, the Lalique Champs-Élysées Crystal Bowl beautifully captures the spirit and sophistication of Paris. Designed by Marc Lalique in 1951, this remarkable piece draws inspiration from the magnificent rows of plane trees that line the famous Avenue des Champs-Élysées, often referred to as “the most beautiful avenue in the world.”
The bowl features finely sculpted crystal leaves that appear to unfold outward in a graceful display, echoing the natural forms of the plane tree foliage. Each leaf is intricately engraved, creating delicate textures and layers that give the design depth and movement. The sculptural form radiates outward from the centre of the bowl, producing a striking visual effect reminiscent of light passing through a canopy of leaves.
Crafted in clear crystal and enhanced with a luxurious gold lustre, the bowl glows with warmth and brilliance. The golden accents highlight the detailed edges of the leaves, while the clear crystal allows light to pass through and illuminate the intricate patterns. This interplay of light, crystal, and gold creates a dazzling effect that changes beautifully depending on the surrounding lighting.
Lalique’s master artisans have carefully shaped the bowl to combine elegance with sculptural impact. The sweeping form and layered leaf design give the piece a dynamic presence, making it appear almost like a sculpture of light and crystal. It is a piece that celebrates the artistry and craftsmanship for which Lalique has been renowned for more than a century.
Each bowl is handcrafted in France, using traditional crystal-making techniques passed down through generations. Lalique’s skilled artisans meticulously shape, polish, and finish each piece to achieve the clarity, brilliance, and detail that define the Maison’s exceptional crystal creations.
The Champs-Élysées bowl makes a striking centrepiece for a coffee table, console, or dining setting. Whether used as a decorative object or styled as part of a luxury interior arrangement, it brings a sense of Parisian elegance and artistic beauty to any space.
With its historic inspiration, exquisite craftsmanship, and luminous design, the Lalique Champs-Élysées Crystal Bowl is both a decorative masterpiece and a celebration of Lalique’s enduring connection to art, nature, and the beauty of Paris.
