Crystal figurine titled 'Pierrot' from the Masquerade Series by Swarovski
History
This Pierrot figurine was released by Swarovski in 1999 as part of the exclusive Swarovski Crystal Society (SCS) Masquerade Trilogy, designed by Adi Stocker. The piece represents the classic theatrical character Pierrot, a melancholic clown from the Italian commedia dell'arte tradition, reimagined in sparkling crystal with articulated limbs and detailed faceting. The Masquerade Series became one of Swarovski's most celebrated annual member exclusives, combining artistic design with technical precision in crystal craftsmanship. Pierrot figurines appeal strongly to Swarovski collectors and crystal enthusiasts who appreciate the brand's limited-edition SCS pieces. These collectors value the combination of theatrical artistry, the exclusivity of member-only releases, and the technical achievement of creating movable crystal joints. The 1999 Pierrot is particularly sought after as part of the complete Masquerade Trilogy, making it a prized addition to serious Swarovski collections for its historical significance and artistic merit.
