The world around is full of life, and in his album – an unusually talented sketches of flowers, trees, birds... But he persistently seeks to draw some-что other, and this is something-что not out.

he waited a respectable career of a jeweler who creates jewelry for the known samples and only occasionally allows himself the liberty of man respectable and respected. But Rene was not just talented boys with a good education.
He was a genius.
Traditional jewelry – precious metals, fabulously expensive stones, geometric shapes, rené quickly got bored with his vivid imagination and restless nature. He kept saying that he intends" to try what-то new and shocking" @- and these words became the leitmotif of his work.


Rene Lalique used unusual motifs and materials.

the Owners of jewelry stores laughed at him:" how can the venerable mother of the family to wear a brooch in the form of what-то swallows? And these plebeian ears, what the hell are you talking about, Monsieur Lalique!". But it was Rene to put his ideas in the material, as they, being captivated, to pay him any amount and asked to repeat multiple instances of.

the exhibition at the Paris salon du Shan-де-Марс Lalique revolutionized. Critics were outraged to combine precious metals with tortoise shell and ivory? And the dreadful snakes supposed to mount on the corsage? What does this upstart?! The fans – mostly women in the audience – was delighted. The young jeweler had their own groupies.

He was a real troublemaker. It was he who introduced the fashion jewellery with the female images at that time it was indecent.
1900-м year women"s clothing has been very conservative – closed dark dresses, stiffness and propriety. Big, bold jewelry of Rene Lalique (and in the style of Lalique, because the imitation of his works was akin to mass insanity among jewelers) demanded of the naked body. And socialite decidedly clothed in dresses with deep necklines and bare shoulders..

Lalique-ювелир was phenomenally popular and successful, but one day everything changed. The endless search of new materials threw Renee many years ago, there, in a suburb of Paris, in the beginning of the 1870-х, where the little boy sobbed and tore to shreds their drawings, because they could not portray...
Clouds.
Now, already held fifty-year-old man, wildly famous jeweler, a happy husband and father, he found the answer. Pencil will not retain the volatile lightness of the clouds – but glass will do the job.

So the jeweler rené Lalique was a glass blower. Largely contributed to this and the meeting with the famous perfumer françois Coty. He, too, was a famous kicker: once, having been refused the sale of perfume, Coty broke a bottle right in the boutique. Visitors are bewitched unfamiliar and strange aroma, were vying with each other to require them to sell this perfume. The then existing design of the bottles did not like – Koti believed that the bottle must match the fragrance to reflect his spirit, his idea. One day, walking for no particular purpose through the streets of Paris, he saw the window of a jewelry shop rené Lalique and realized: here it is.
