"Branche de Pommier" Diadème: The influence of the naturalism of Japanese art can also be seen in this horn, diamonds and gold "Apple Tree" diadem, c. 1901-02. The elegant apple tree bough, characterized by its decorative simplicity, is another example of the wonderful and inexhaustible botanical repertoire that inspired so much of Lalique’s work throughout his career.
