Orrefors by Karl Lagerfeld


Karl Lagerfeld likes nothing more than expanding his modes of expression.
3 months ago, Karl Lagerfeld is releasing his first line of crystal.

The designer have collaborated Orrefors, a Swedish institution for over a century, carrying on the age-old tradition of hand-blown glass shaped by master artisans.
With its exquisite engravings, streamlined forms and colours ranging from delicate to rich, the Orrefors brand is one of the great symbols of Swedish design and luxury. It is a world-wide brand, gracing the finest tables such as the Swedish Royal Palace.

Karl Lagerfeld designed a collection in his own image: Clean-lined, subtle and functional.
The first members of the Lagerfeld crystal family are champagne flutes and coupes and wine, water and liqueur glasses. Transparent, black or milky white, sometimes engraved with the KL monogram, the series typifies the Karl Lagerfeld ethos of ultra-strict lines.

Based on the same principle, the collection also features a large round bowl, a rectangular vase and a cylindrical vase, each poised on four crystal globes on transparent platforms.
With its simple colour scale, its purity of lines and shapes, the flow of the material and the refinement of the details, each crystal contour of the Karl Lagerfeld series reflects timeless elegance. The collection bestows a new, harmonious and modern face on the century-old Orrefors expertise.
