Lalique glass is named after its founder, René Lalique, who was born in Ay, a small town in France in 1860. Lalique was a French glass designer and artist who is considered one of the most influential figures in the Art Nouveau movement. Lalique's fascination with glass started at a young age when he was apprenticed to a jeweller. He later went on to study at the École des Arts Décoratifs in Paris and then worked for several leading Parisian jewellers.

In 1885, Rene Lalique opened his own jewellery workshop in Paris, where he began to experiment with glass. He developed a new style of glass that was more translucent and refractive than traditional glass, and he began to incorporate it into his jewelry designs. Lalique's jewellery quickly gained popularity, and he became known as one of the leading designers of the Art Nouveau movement.
