with embossed figures
Most of the glass pieces in the film Coco Chanel and Igor Stravinsky are by the designer Rene Lalique. The endless flow of perfume in the 1920s found refuge in many of Lalique's bottles and flasks. Some of his bottles were extravagantly carved, while others were embossed with delicate impressions. One famous bottle of his, still used today, is Nina Ricci's L'Air du Temps, with glass carvings of flying doves as the lid.
