the coquilles service, a famous and widely distributed creation from lalique, is made up of five plates and five bowls of varying sizes. The use of opalescent glass is particularly judicious for this model, because its texture wonderfully evokes the pearly appearance of certain shells, thus creating a perfect harmony between the pattern and the material.
