Black crystal.
The Manhattan collection pays tribute to the architectural beauty of 1920's New York. In 1912, the famous perfumer Francois Coty commissioned Rene Lalique to create immense glass panels to adorn the exterior of his US headquarters in Manhattan. The legendary building on 5th Avenue is now the site of the historic New York department store Henri Bendel.
Featuring strong Art Deco-inspired designs, the severe geometrical lines are softened by the satin-finish of the crystal. The designs are either clear crystal or highlighted with black or platinum enamel that is applied by hand.
