Masriera – girls and fairies

Luis Masriera, inspired by the work of René Lalique at the Paris Exposition of 1900, introduced the concept of Art Nouveau to his firm’s jewelry making, establishing it as the leading Spanish proponent of the new style. In 1915, he began a partnership with the Carreras, and together they produced high-quality Art Nouveau jewelry until the 1920s.
