La Petite Robe Noire by Guerlain: 2014 Silver Lace Limited Edition Baccarat Flacon.

100ml Extrait retailing for $10,100 at the Guerlain boutique. Housed in a vintage Baccarat flacon adorned with lacy silver filigree by Sara Bran.




From Guerlain's website:
"When searching in the archives of the House of Guerlain , fifty vintage "inverted heart" bottles  - hand-made by Baccarat workshops according to the original plan of 1912 - were found . Guerlain has chosen to entrust the last twenty to a craftsman possessing a unique and rare skill: Sara Bran, gold and silver on lace.  
Combining precision , creativity and refinement, her work is inspired by lace textile heritage. For this exceptional limited edition of  La Petite Robe Noire, Sara Bran revives the ancient tradition of the ornamental perfume bottle holder. From massive plates of extremely fine silver, pierced, soldered and polished by hand for many hours. Delicate lace volutes arabesques and interlacing twirling comes conformability vial as would fabric a LBD."


Only 21 numbered pieces are available worldwide.
