Lalique Irene Red Enamel Pendant Necklace
This striking Lalique Irene pendant necklace features an intricate openwork design in rich red enamel over gilt metal, centered with a deep red cabochon glass stone. The large, ornate pendant is suspended from a gold-tone chain with red braided cord sections, creating a bold contrast. The reverse is signed Lalique on both the pendant and drop element, with an additional Lalique tag on the chain. An excellent statement piece that reflects Lalique's celebrated artistry in jewelry design. Created by Rene Lalique, a pioneering force in Art Nouveau jewelry, the Irene design showcases his innovative use of materials, particularly enamel and glass, applied with artistic finesse. Lalique's jewelry work flourished from the 1890s through the early 1910s, after which he transitioned primarily to glass art and crystal production. The use of flowing, nature-influenced forms and bold enamel in this pendant mirrors his characteristic aesthetic from that period. Excellent vintage condition with vibrant enamel, flawless glass cabochon, and intact chain/cord.
