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 or abstract forms. Many of the jewels are designed to be worn in several ways, making them favourites among lovers of unique, versatile accessories. From the 1960s to the 1980s in particular, Lanvin enjoyed a creative heyday in jewellery design, with bold statement pieces that are highly sought after by collectors today.
