“This piece is not like the others as he\u2019s going to give us a few clues. It\u2019s not like the others because of these blue-green protrusions that are not very attractive; it\u2019s not really a beautiful piece. These protrusions are meant to represent the sky, yet in no other piece by Lalique<\/a> jewelry is the sky represented by protrusions, usually there is a blue enamel background and so forth, but here you have these large falling \u201ccapsules\u201d of green-blue. The other clue Lalique gave us is in relation to the senses; he invented an enameling technique where, upon touching the enamel you can feel that it\u2019s coarse, here, on the husk of a hazelnut, even when dry, it remains coarse. So it\u2019s an appeal to the senses of both sight and touch. What\u2019s fascinating about Lalique, a nature lover, and we know from his letters, is that he set out into the night on foot, and he said that all in his heart became extremely sensitive when it was night in the trees, and so he actually went under the trees and saw the light falling upon him, and here, exceptionally in this piece, we are with Lalique under a hazel tree as the light falls upon us.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
