This line of emblematic fashion jewellery features one of Laliques signature motifs: a crystal mask of a woman with a re-polished satin finish. Created in 1935 by Rene Lalique for a specially commissioned fountain titles Coutard, this face of a woman with marine creatures entwined in her hairs is inspired by the myth of Arethusa.
