AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

An exceptional antique crystal set decanter by Baccarat / Creusot, produced prior to 1936 a refined example of 19th-early 20th century French crystal craftsmanship.
This elegant piece embodies the timeless sophistication. Crafted in fine lead crystal, the decanter and plate features the distinctive design, a rhythm of delicate, linear cuts that subtly catch and refract light, creating a restrained yet highly luxurious visual effect. The silhouette is perfectly balanced, combining architectural clarity with the softness of hand-finished crystal.
The condition is very good for its age, showing only one deffect on neck, consistent traces of time that enhance its authenticity without compromising its brilliance or structural integrity. The surface remains beautifully clear, with a luminous transparency characteristic of early crystal production.
