Christofle have created a silver-plated filigree vase to encase magnum of the signature anemone bottle, Perrier-Jouët’s prestige cuvee, the Belle Epoque 1998.
Limited to an edition of 150 pieces, only 5 of which are available in the UK, each one is hand-worked and a beautiful, contemporary interpretation of Galle’s original floral creation, showing off the elegance and craftsmanship of Christofle’s silversmiths.
1998 has produced a truly fantastic vintage due to ideal weather conditions giving a high level of maturity and a lot of freshness.

For those that seek retro chic in only its finest forms, luxury French silverware designers Christofle have lent their touch to one of video gaming’s most iconic images: the Space Invader.
The first Space Invaders game appeared in 1978, with endless rows of pixelized grimacing aliens marching like an army of robot crabs towards earth’s one brave remaining defender.
A Parisian street artist known only as ‘Invader’ helped to inspire a pop culture comeback for the diminutive creatures 20 years later when, in 1998, he started a public installation of mosaic-tiled Space Invaders on buildings and facades in some of the world’s most bustling cities.


Perrier-Jouet presents the cuvee Belle Epoque 1998 in a magnum size, contained in a precious vase wrapped in silver lace, created by Christofle.
Perrier-Jouet and Christofle first worked together in 1935, and joined forces again in 2008 to take up a new aesthetic challenge: producing a work of art that re-interprets Emile Gallé’s anemone, created in 1902 for the Cuvee Belle Epoque, in a contemporary light, giving it the form of a vase.
The 2008 collaboration between the two houses yields a piece that doubles as a unique case to hold a magnum of the Cuvee Belle Epoque. Carved in metal, this silver-plate piece produced by Christofle serves as a lacework case for the Cuvee Belle Epoque.
