IMMORTALISED IN CRYSTAL
Lalique has introduced 12 crystal works to its Eternal collection by British artist Damien Hirst. Expanding on the 2015 collaboration, the sculptures and crystal panels recall Hirst’s art on life and death. Among them is Eternal Sleep, a sculpture inspired from the diamond-encrusted human skull, For The Love Of God, which gained the artist notoriety. All works in the collection are limited edition and comes with artist certification. #04-05 Paragon.
“Design is about far more than aesthetics. Good design will improve quality of life, but great design can affect mood. It can literally transform the way people feel by elevating their mood and recharging their souls.”
