The Val-Saint-Lambert crystal works were founded in 1826 on the site of a former abbey in Seraing, near Liège, Belgium. World-renowned, they enjoyed intensive and high-quality production.
Since 2018, the company has been majority-owned by entrepreneur George Arthur Forrest.
TIMELINE
1826
The crystal works' first furnace is activated. Under the direction of chemist François Kemlin and polytechnician Auguste Lelièvre, the Val Saint Lambert glassworks and establishment were the first (and to this day the only) crystal manufacturers in Belgium.
1841
At the Exhibition of Belgian Industrial Products in Brussels, Val Saint Lambert won a gold medal for its pure, refined, and colorful crystal.
1894
Val Saint Lambert attracted attention at the Antwerp World's Fair. For the first time, crystal creations with geometric patterns were presented there. The enthusiasm and success were phenomenal. The ingenious art of cutting, characterized by complex geometric patterns across the entire surface, enabled Val Saint Lambert to expand and become a global brand.
1894
At 2.25 meters tall, weighing 200 kilos, and comprising 82 crystal parts, the Vase of the Nine Provinces is a true technical feat. A team of thirty people worked on its creation for over 2,000 hours.
1900
At the end of the 19th and beginning of the 20th centuries, Val Saint Lambert was at its peak. Nearly three-quarters of the production was exported. The Tsars of Russia were the main clients.
1901
Philippes Wolfers, a Brussels-based goldsmith, sculptor, and designer, combined Art Nouveau and crystal. The "Twilight" vase, depicting a bat in several layers of crystal, is a centerpiece.
1900 – 1925
The two crystal chandeliers in the hall of the Maharaja of Gwalior's palace in India are certainly two monumental references. Weighing 3.5 tons and measuring 13 meters high, they are the largest crystal chandeliers in the world. Legend has it that the architect had the ceiling's strength tested by leading ten elephants to the first floor. 1908
Val Saint Lambert introduced double-dipped, colored, and cut crystal, an innovation that allowed Belgian crystal to acquire a worldwide reputation, which still remains today.
1914 – 1918
The First World War forced the crystal factory to shut down for four years. At the end of the war, the furnaces were restarted, but a significant market had disappeared following the end of the Tsarist regime in Russia.
1926
Val Saint Lambert celebrated its 100th anniversary. Employing more than 5,000 people, the crystal factory gained ground again by presenting innovative collections in the Art Deco style.
1930
With an export market representing 90% of its turnover, the global crisis hit Val Saint Lambert hard.
1945
The bombings of World War II destroyed the crystal factory and led to structural financial problems. 1950
A luxury product, crystal is also increasingly becoming a functional product.
1970 – 1980
Val Saint Lambert collaborates extensively with external designers: Samuel Herman, Yann Zoritchac, Borek Sipek, Philippe Starck, Frans Van Praet, Martin Szekely, and more.
1992
Frans Van Praet designs the legendary small crystal Seville chair for the Belgian pavilion at the World Expo in Spain.
2010
With a new identity, Val Saint Lambert surprises at the Maison & Objet interiors trade show in Paris. A more youthful image, the first step towards a global comeback... In-house designer Eric Delvaux creates the world's tallest crystal rocket (2.60 meters high) for the Belgian pavilion at the World Expo in China.
2014
A Belgian industrialist, Jacques Somville, takes over Val Saint Lambert. 2018
Entrepreneur George Arthur Forrest acquires 75% of the Val Saint Lambert crystal factory. This acquisition is part of a long-term strategy aimed at ensuring the sustainability of the business and employment.
