Located in Lambertville, NJ
This Lalique “Langeais” clear and frosted crystal decanter, created in France during the 1990s, showcases Marc Lalique’s sculptural ribbed design inspired by gadrooned balusters. Featuring a spherical stopper, brilliant clarity, and frosted relief, it embodies Lalique’s refined craftsmanship and modern French elegance. Signed “Lalique France,” this 10-inch decanter offers timeless luxury and collectible appeal. This exquisite Lalique “Langeais” crystal decanter exemplifies the refined artistry of Marc Lalique, who designed the model in 1976 as part of a service inspired by gadrooned balusters—a classical architectural motif reinterpreted through Lalique’s modern lens. In homage to the wines of the Pays de Loire, the design was named after the historic town of Langeais, reflecting the maison’s deep connection to French cultural heritage. The decanter features a beautifully balanced clear and frosted ribbed body, where alternating vertical reliefs create a rhythmic interplay of texture and light. The sculptural form is crowned with a perfectly spherical stopper, smooth and luminous, offering a striking contrast to the frosted gadrooned pattern below. Its proportions—5" W x 5" D x 10" H (24.5 × 12.5 cm)—give it a substantial yet elegant presence suitable for bar carts, dining rooms, or curated crystal collections. Executed in Lalique’s signature lead crystal, the piece displays exceptional clarity, weight, and artisanal precision. The underside is etched with Lalique’s proprietary signature seal and “Lalique France,” confirming authenticity and origin. A timeless example of late‑20th‑century Lalique design, the “Langeais” decanter blends classical inspiration with modern French luxury, making it both a functional vessel and a sculptural decorative object.
