Alongside couture and prêt-à-porter, Lanvin is renowned for its refined bijoux fantaisie (costume jewellery), which became a fixture of the fashion scene from the early 20th century onwards. Lanvin's jewellery is characterised by artistic, often sculptural designs in which playful shapes, rich colours and high-quality materials come together. Although the pieces contain no gemstones or precious metals, they excel in craftsmanship and aesthetics. Think gilt metals, glass stones, enamel and striking motifs such as flowers, geometry and abstract forms. Many of the jewels were designed to be worn in several ways, making them favourites among lovers of unique, versatile accessories. Lanvin enjoyed a particularly creative flowering in jewellery design from the 1960s to the 1980s, with bold statement pieces that are highly sought after by collectors today.
