Korban selected Lalique’s Champs-Élyées 6 Tier Chandelier, Ginkgo Sconces, and iconic Cactus Table along with the Rinceaux Mirror, Marsan Table, Perles d’eau Coffee Table, and a variety of classic vases and bowls in clear crystal. Hundreds of Lalique’s crystal swallows will cascade across the suede-covered walls to create the ultimate modern fantasy.
The installation will also incorporate pieces of straw marquetry—one of the great French decorative art finishes—by French atelier Jallu Ébénistes.
“The space I’m creating is a romantic and modern take on the world of Lalique,” Korban said in a statement. “It’s monochromatic, blush color palette with backdrop of rose-covered walls will introduce this magical brand to a new generation, allowing people to experience the beauty of Lalique in a new and exciting way.”
Salon Art + Design takes place November 8–12 at Park Avenue Armory, 643 Park Ave., New York.
