Description from the seller
BACCARAT – Liqueur Service
Faceted crystal, varied hues
Maison Baccarat – Early 20th century
Rare and elegant colored crystal wine service, consisting of six matching glasses, made by the prestigious Baccarat house, a symbol of excellence in French glassmaking for over two centuries.
The whole is distinguished by the purity of its lines, the delicacy of the cut crystal, and its subtle varied tones – emerald green, chartreuse green, golden amber, amethyst, ruby, and sapphire – capturing light reflections with remarkable intensity, a hallmark of Baccarat productions from the early 20th century.
The slender silhouettes of the glasses, with curved bowls adorned with facets and precisely cut panels, harmonize with the absolute transparency of the bases and stems, creating an ensemble that is both understated and refined.
Each glass, with a sculptural body and architectural form, bears witness to great glassmaking mastery, where the cuts balance decorative elegance and functionality. The set is authenticated by the Baccarat mark, guaranteeing its origin and association with one of the most important French artistic crystal manufacturers.
This service perfectly illustrates the aesthetic of the era, when the art of crystal served daily life with a keen sense of form and light. It is today a sought-after collectible piece, suitable for display in a showcase or for a high-level decorative presentation.
Composition:
– 5 matching glasses
Dimensions approximate:
– Height: 19 cm
– Diameter: 8 cm
Condition: very good state of preservation, with minor marks consistent with age, without major impairment. Rare and decorative object, ideal for Baccarat collectors, Art Nouveau enthusiasts, and French decorative arts lovers.
Shipping insured and to a pickup point if possible. The images form part of the description.
