Important document !!

"The museum houses a renowned collection with a focus on the floral style and the Art Nouveau works of René Lalique. These include Parisian jewelry from the fin de siècle, as well as iconic pieces such as pendants (for example the pendant “Violette”) and hair combs. The accompanying exhibition catalog, entitled \"Lalique: Schmuckkunst des Jugendstils\", was published in 1987/1988 by the Bavarian National Museum in collaboration with the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation in Lisbon and various German museum collections. The catalog documents how Lalique revolutionized jewelry design by incorporating natural forms—plants, animals, mythology—and unconventional materials such as glass, horn, and plique-à-jour enamel—into his work."
