Description from the seller

Set of 6 lead crystal wine glasses at 31% (the purest crystal in the world), mouth-blown with freehand technique and deep manual polishing with diamond-cut, transparent, height 17 x diameter 8.5 cm, exceptional and exclusive handcrafted execution from the world’s oldest crystal works Saint Louis 1586. Designed in 1928, Tommy’s service left a magnificent impression in 1938 during an exceptional lunch at Versailles: more than two hundred guests attended, among them the King of the United Kingdom George VI and his wife Queen Elizabeth. From its star-shaped base to its parison adorned with beveled diamond-cut, Tommy reflects all the skill of Saint-Louis glassmakers. Made in France, each piece bears an acid-etched mark under the foot and is marked beyond the St Louis mark, commemorating the 225th anniversary of its birth. Condition: Active. Current: 1987
