In an extraordinary fusion of heritage and innovation, Lalique and Beluga Vodka have once again come together to reimagine luxury through craftsmanship. Known for its pursuit of technically daring, artistically bold projects, Lalique has created a decanter that epitomizes perfection. Every detail speaks to the legacy of Alsace-based crystal artisans, who pour centuries of expertise into each step, from intricate mold work to the intense heat of the furnace. This decanter, a work of art, is crafted with dedication that only time-honored skills and the vision of modern artistry could bring to life.
Mirroring this commitment to craft, Beluga Vodka approaches distillation with the same precision and care. With meticulous attention to purity, Beluga rests its vodka for a full 100 days to achieve unparalleled clarity and refinement.
This year, their dedication takes shape in the Epicure Series II, an artisanal journey made manifest in crystal and spirit. Inspired by the essence of water—a symbol of life, purity, and seamless flow—this release is a continuation of a shared legacy that celebrates craftsmanship and resilience.
The design of the Epicure Series II decanter pays homage to the elements and figures that define Lalique’s multifaceted storied history. Water, the central muse, flows as a connecting force, embodying vitality and continuity. The graceful forms of two Bacchantes, the mythic priestesses of Bacchus, wrap around the decanter’s silhouette in a design inspired by René Lalique’s iconic work. This reinterpretation brings Art Nouveau to the modern man, celebrating strength and reverence for tradition while capturing the allure of the female form in fine crystal—a recurring motif in Lalique's legacy.
Finished with a deep blue cap, the decanter is a nod to the power of color in elevating every detail to new heights.
This collector’s piece, exclusive and uncompromising, is crafted not just for display but as an emblem of sophistication.
For those who appreciate both spirit and style, Beluga Vodka and Lalique’s Epicure Series II is a rare opportunity to hold in hand the art of savoring life, a quiet luxury as smooth and essential as water itself.
