Merles et Raisins grand decorative panel Windfall beauty and honourIn 1928, Ren Lalique designed the Merles & Raisins decorative panels to adorn the mahogany woodwork of the legendary Orient Express. Today, Lalique reinterprets these iconic motifs through two grand decorative panels fashioned with the lost wax technique. Blackbirds with finely chiseled plumage indulge in an abundance of sweet grapes while the vines create an exceptional rhythm throughout a perfectly balanced composition.
