A unique collaboration in design and craftsmanship.
“What I enjoy most is doing something I’ve never done before.”

Karl Lagerfeld likes nothing more than expanding his modes of expression. Now, after all the fashion, the perfumes and accessories, Karl Lagerfeld is releasing his first line of crystal.

Knowing the artistic excellence of Orrefors to be comparable with the world of high fashion, Karl Lagerfeld designed a collection in his own image: Clean-lined, subtle and functional. Given his exacting perfectionism, the designer could never have collaborated with less than the best. The Orrefors by Karl Lagerfeld series reflects timeless elegance; the collection bestows a new, harmonious and modern face on the century-old Orrefors expertise while carrying on the age-old tradition of hand-blown glass shaped by master artisans.

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. And in the spirit of the designer’s well-known practicality, the series also includes monogrammed coasters to prevent any trace of an errant drop on an immaculate tablecloth.

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 color scale, its purity of lines and shapes, the flow of the material and the refinement of the details, each crystal contour of the Orrefors by Karl Lagerfeld collection will also be available in gift boxes containing pairs of monogrammed champagne flutes and separately sold boxes of engraved coasters to place under them.
