6. Lalique “Champs Elysée” Table Lamp

Lalique Champs Elysee Table Lamp

This is the big one — and for those in the know, it’s simply referred to as a “Lalique.”

René Lalique was a French jewellery designer and master glassmaker, and a driving force in the Art Deco movement.

His signature style of contrasted clear and frosted glass can be seen in a host of luxury settings of his day — from the lighting columns and chandeliers on the French luxury liner Normandie to the perfume bottles of François Coty.

Today, his pieces continue to be highly sought after, and this stunning Lalique “Champs Elysée” table lamp, circa 1957, is no exception. The way the light shines through the purity of the crystal creates ever-changing reflections, making every piece unique.
