AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Set of 6 Baccarat red crystal goblets – overlay engraved, France, 20th century
DESCRIPTION
A refined set consisting of six crystal goblets signed Baccarat, characterized by elegant cut work and intense ruby-red overlay color.
The glasses feature a cup decorated with a hand-engraved geometric pattern, where the red color is skillfully “scavenged” to create a bright contrast with the underlying transparent crystal. The lower band is enriched with prism cuts that amplify light refraction.
The slender stem and wide base give balance and refinement, making these goblets ideal for an elegant table or for collectors of French crystal.
An exemplary representation of Baccarat’s 20th-century production, admired for quality, brilliance, and precision of the cuts.
TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS
Manufacture: Baccarat
Origin: France
Material: lead crystal
Technique: red overlay incised and smoothed
Measurements: Height: 20.3 cm, Upper diameter: 8.4 cm, Base diameter: 8 cm
Total lot weight: 1.969 kg
Quantity: 6 goblets
CONDITION
Excellent overall condition: no noticeable chipping, intact rims, crystal brilliant and well preserved, normal minimal signs of use compatible with age.
CURIOUS FACT
The overlay technique (colored crystal superimposed on a transparent layer and subsequently engraved) is one of the most complex and iconic glassmaking techniques in European crystal. Baccarat is one of its leading interpreters, delivering results of very high optical and decorative quality.
SHIPPING
Careful and professional packaging with individual protection for each goblet.
