To mark their 90th anniversary in 1994, Rolls-Royce Ltd. commissioned Lalique to reproduce the Spirit of Ecstacy in crystal glass, in a limited edition of 200 pieces for presentation to executives of Rolls-Royce and other v.i.p's. It was sold and marked by Rapiditas Editions Limited on behalf of Lalique. The Spirit of Ecstacy was originally commissioned in 1911 by Rolls-Royce, sculpted by the artist Charles Sykes, and created in glass by René Lalique.
