As society evolved, the couple created specific items. Lancel developed a whole range of products for women smokers such as: cigarette cases, purses.
From , the company produced leather goods. Lancel opened a leather workshop and began making handbags in line with demand. Angele Lancel designed bags to keep smoking items organized. She replaced almoners pouches with handbags. Lancel launched its first handbag collection in She saw bags as "secrets of feminine seduction".
The company rapidly expanded and produced gifts, jewelry, watches, decorative items. The couple either manufactured the products themselves or relied on their craftsmen. A few years after its launch, Lancel developed a retail outlet network. In the s, the brand registered around 10 boutiques named "Au Sphinx", "Au Phenix", "A lindomptable", "A linenarrable". Their son Albert took the companys reins in and transformed the modest company into a global brand.
He immediately placed the handbag at the core of the companys strategy. He suggested using fine leathers including lizard, calfskin.
Albert also suggested adding pockets and other features. In , he designed the Parapluie, which contained a mirror, a makeup bag and a folding umbrella. The brand launched a bucket bag with a flexible shape. This design became legendary, defined the brand and inspired the other handbag collections.

At the Paris Universal Exposition in , the brand received an award for its range of automatic lighters. The company became a major brand for luxury leather goods and accessories in Paris. The brand also distinguished itself with its marketing strategy.

In the A Song of Ice and Fire novels, Lancel is a squire who harbors ambitions to become a great knight. He idolizes his cousin Jaime. He has the blond hair and general good looks of the Lannisters, but is considered a poor copy of Jaime at best.
He is not quite as tall, his features not so fine as Jaime, and unlike Jaime's hair of beaten gold, Lancel's hair is sandy. On the other hand, Tyrion notes, even a poor copy of the famously very beautiful Jaime is still quite handsome. Lancel has a good and genuinely warm relationship with his father Kevan, as well as with his mother and younger siblings. Robert Baratheon was talked into taking two Lannister cousins as squires by Cersei in service to her large and ambitious clan, Ned Stark notes.
The other squire is year-old Tyrek Lannister omitted from the TV show , who disappears during the Riot of King's Landing , and his body is never found. After discovering that Lancel has secretly been taken as a lover by Cersei and also had a part in Robert's death, Tyrion turns him into his own agent; Lancel feebly tries to deny everything, but soon breaks.
Tyrion reflects to himself that Lancel will probably not survive another year: Cersei will kill Lancel if she discovers that he is now spying for Tyrion; Jaime will kill him if he returns and discovers his relationship with Cersei, if Cersei doesn't kill him first to prevent Jaime finding out.
Lancel doesn't appear in Seasons 3 or 4 of the TV series because he is still recovering from his arrow wound after the Battle of the Blackwater. In the third novel A Storm of Swords it is mentioned that the actual wound was relatively moderate, but soon festered and developed into a life-threatening infection.
Throughout the third novel other characters, such as Tyrion, sporadically mention reports that Lancel is very feverish and hovering between life and death. Kevan tells Tyrion that Cersei often visits Lancel's sickbed, to lift his spirits and pray for him. Tyrion wonders "But is she praying that he lives, or dies? Since Tyrion is not thrilled about marrying Sansa , Tywin asks Kevan if Lancel is strong enough to wed her. Later, Tywin reveals that as a part of the agreement with Walder Frey about destroying the Starks , Lancel is to marry his granddaughter Amerei aka "Gatehouse Ami" for her blatant promiscuity , sister of Fat Walda.
When Lancel finally makes an appearance in Joffrey's wedding , the first time he has left his sickbed since the battle, he looks ghastly: his hair has turned white and brittle, and he is thin as a stick. Without his father beside him holding him up, he would surely have collapsed. Yet when Sansa praises his valor and says how good it is to see him getting strong again, both Lancel and his father beam. Lancel is one of the only two people who praise Tyrion for his bravery at the Battle of the Blackwater the second is Garlan Tyrell.
Lancel regains the ability to walk under his own power by the time of Tywin's funeral, at the beginning of the fourth novel - corresponding to the Season 5 premiere, when Lancel also returns in the TV series.
He approaches Cersei, expressing his discontent of his impending marriage. Cersei is filled with disgust to see him: grey-faced, gaunt, with hollow cheeks, sunken eyes, and hair as white and brittle as chalk. She muses that he is just a weak reed, a mewling fool, that knighting him was a mistake, and bedding him was a bigger one.
Suddenly she begins to suspect correctly that he told the High Septon about them. If he confessed about bedding her, she could dismiss that as the bragging of a callow boy smitten by her beauty; but if he confessed about Robert's death - that would be disastrous for her.
Therefore, she orders her henchman Osney Kettleblack to murder the High Septon, and he does. Similarly to Aeron Greyjoy although he is a member of different religion , Lancel's near-death experience convinces him that the Seven must have spared him for a reason: to atone for his earlier sins. Lancel becomes a fanatically pious man, despite his marriage to Amerei Frey and being given the lands of the newly extinct House Darry. While en route to Riverrun to oversee the siege , Jaime passes through Darry.
He meets Lancel, who tearfully confesses to sleeping with Cersei and serving Robert the strong wine which contributed to his death. In contrast to Tyrion's prospect, Jaime does not harm Lancel, and does not resent him at all; instead, he feels sorry for his cousin. Lancel's confession confirms what Tyrion has told earlier Jaime about Cersei's sluttishness, and reveals to him that she is responsible for the deaths of Robert and the High Septon. Lancel later abandons his wife and renounces his claim to any lands to join the Warrior's Sons, one of the two orders of the newly-reformed Faith Militant not the Sparrows.
He is aware of his wife's notorious promiscuity and that she will probably cheat on him in his absence, but does not care at all. The TV version simply condensed this to make him one of the Sparrows who become the bulk of the Poor Fellows, the second order of the Faith Militant. When Lancel reappears in the Season 5 premiere of the TV version, Cersei does remark that he has finally recovered from the wound he took at the Battle of the Blackwater over two years before , indirectly acknowledging that this is why he was not present in Seasons 3 and 4.
Lancel confesses his and Cersei's crimes also to the High Sparrow, but Cersei is not arrested due to his confession: she sends Osney to confess falsely to the High Sparrow that he has slept with Margaery, as a part of Cersei's scheme against her. Osney sounds so pleased to be so guilty, that it arouses the High Sparrow's suspicions.
He has Osney tortured, then the truth comes out: Osney admits he has slept with Cersei, murdered the previous High Septon at her command and never touched Margaery. Cersei is thrown to jail. Later, she is confronted with all the accusations based on both Lancel and Osney's true confessions.
She admits sleeping with Lancel, but claims it was after Robert's death, therefore less serious than crime than she is accused of. Kevan chides Cersei for corrupting Lancel, stating that she should have looked after him, guided him, found him a likely girl of good family.
Cersei apologizes, musing that Lancel wanted her more than she ever wanted him, and maybe still does. Before performing the walk of atonement , Cersei notices that Lancel is among a group of the Warrior's Sons assigned to escort her.
She is filled with anger, thinking " My blood and my betrayer ". In the epilogue of the fifth novel, Kevan contemplates about adding Lancel to the Kingsguard, thinking that there is more honor in that than he will ever find in the Warrior's Sons.
