Lalique

The Lalique shop on New Bond Street has some beautiful things and though I have bought a number of items there, I find the staff a bit unwelcoming and intimidating.
Lalique produces a new crystal Christmas tree decoration every year which I’ve been collecting for the past 6 years. Whenever I go into the shop to buy each year’s new piece I haven’t felt welcomed — perhaps as I’m spending under £100.
However, on the couple of occasions when I’ve been in to buy something considerably more expensive the welcome and attention has been of a higher standard. There is a logic behind this I suppose, but carrying on like this means that people with a little to spend may not come back — not the best idea for a shop.
Due to this, I don’t really feel comfortable going into the shop for a look round, which is a shame as some of the items are gorgeous.

I love cristal and I particularly like the Lalique brand; their cristal objects are fabulous (some require a new mortgage unfortunately). And for me the most exciting part of the shop is their jewelry section. Lalique make gorgeous rings and pendants — great (self) gifts!
By the way if you cant make it to Bond Street, they also have a good concession in Harrods.
