Drinking service (6) - Crystal

Set of 6 Superior French Crystal Goblets
Design a Faceted Stem – Handcrafted in the early 1900s
This refined set of six goblets is a masterful example of how classic French design can fuse purity and complexity. Characterized by a slender line and absolute transparency, these pieces represent the excellence of upstairs-style crystal glassmaking from the Belle Époque period.
Premium Executive Features
Architecture of the Stem (Faceted Stem): The stem is not a simple column but is worked with flat, hand-smoothed facets. This technique transforms the glass into a prism that disperses light into crystalline bursts, while also offering a solid and pleasant grip to the touch.
The Tulip Bowl: The cup features an open, tulip-shaped form, ideal for emphasizing the brilliance of its contents. At the base of the cup, at the junction with the stem, there is delicate work with geometric steps that recall flower petals, a detail that adds visual depth to the piece.
High-Quality Crystal: The material used stands out for its exceptional purity. Free of inclusions or bubbles, the crystal possesses the characteristic cool, silvery luster that distinguishes the finest French productions, along with a clear and persistent ring.
